It’s been a while since I last updated the Mossey River Honour Roll in 2016.
With the passing of the hundredth anniversary of Armistice Day, I decided to make a big push to find and link all of the soldiers from the districts of:
- Fishing River,
- Fork River,
- Ethelbert,
- Oak Brae,
- Sifton,
- Waterhen
- Winnipegosis, and
- Valley River.
The stats are as follows:
| WWI Honour Roll | ||
| Community | Old Number | New Number |
| Fishing River | 0 | 1 |
| Fork River | 17 | 30 |
| Ethelbert | 0 | 10 |
| Oak Brae | 0 | 1 |
| Sifton | 0 | 28 |
| Winnipegosis | 35 | 101 |
| Valley River | 0 | 5 |
| Waterhen | 0 | 2 |
| Total | 52 | 178 |
That’s one hundred and twenty-six new names I’ve added!
There are still eighteen individuals who I have been unable to find documents for, but I haven’t exhausted all the venues yet. I’m going to do some cross-referencing to see if I can locate the missing documents. Additionally, there could still be some soldiers I’ve missed altogether.
