Kyogle Methodist Church Great War Roll of Honor Middle Image 0 / 0 - Prev Next Description / Background This timber honour roll lists the names of 41 men from the Kyogle Methodist Church who served in the First World War. It demonstrates a high level of craftsmanship, with carved columns on each side and three carved urns adorning the pediment. The whole is finished with a timber ledge that acts as the base piece. The names are neatly printed in gold on two panels in the centre of the board. They are set within a frame made of a different timber. The left panel includes the names of those who served. Those who died in the conflict are listed on the right panel. The panels hold 24 names and 17 names respectively. The roll was unveiled at the church on 23 February 1919. The event was reported in detail in the Northern Star on 1 March. Shire President and Senior Circuit Steward Mr R. E. Alcorn performed the unveiling and Reverend Harold Skuse gave the dedication. A brief mention of the event appeared in the Casino and Kyogle Courier and North Coast Advertiser a the week earlier, on 26 February. This announcement called the roll the "permanent" roll. This appears to reference an earlier roll unveiled at the church on 14 November 1915, while the war was underway. At that stage, it contained only 14 names, all of which appear on the 1919 version. The 1915 roll was also unveiled by Mr Alcorn. The whereabouts of this memorial are unknown. The 1919 roll was later moved to the Kyogle Historical Society Museum and is available for viewing when the museum is open.
