To commemorate the centenary of World War 1, Wollongong City Libraries will develop an innovative online resource – Illawarra Remembers 1914-1918 – which will include information and photographs that tell the stories of the Illawarra’s brave men and women who went to war. We need your help.
There are a number of Honour Rolls and Memorials across the Illawarra which commemorate the men and women involved in the war. Below is a photograph of the Balgownie Presbyterian Church. It is not held in the Balgownie Uniting Church, Church Street, Balgownie. [1] (NB. The rolls and memorials may have changed location since the time the photograph was taken).
