Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Shire of Noosa Roll of HonourPrint Page 
The honour roll commemorates those who served in World War One.
It is a pressed copper 'Wunderlich' Honour Board with a laurel wreath, soldier and war gun moulded into the sides. Small gold plaques are inserted at the front and the Union Jack/Australian flag moulded at the top next to the top plaque.
The Honour Roll was unveiled at Pomona on the 8th September 1917 with the Chairman of the Noosa Shire Council presiding over a large and representative gathering. While the Union Jack and flags of various allies were being unfurled, Mr J. W. Napier gave a brief account of the war. Mr A. E. Edwards unfurled the flags and the band played the national anthems of each nation. The honour roll, which contained 266 names at the time of the unveiling, is of embossed copper and features a light horseman and an infantryman.
The Brisbane Courier, 13th September 1917.
