Description / Background

The St John's Kelly's Plains Church of England First World War Honour Roll is a stately timber board that was built by Mr H. Falconbridge, cabinet maker of Armidale. It is made of Queensland silky oak and its construction was reported in The Armidale Chronicle on 7 March 1923.

The roll was unveiled one month later, on 3 April at an evening service at the church. Canon Riley was the preacher and members of the Cathedral Choir in Armidale attended. A large congregation witnessed the ceremony and Mrs Price of Saumarez Ponds, who had two sons on active service, one of whom paid the supreme sacrifice, unveiled the roll (The Armidale Express, 30 March 1923; 6 April 1923. The Armidale Chronicle, 7 April 1923).
