Over the coming months I will be locating and photographing the Great War memorials
in Jersey starting with the twelve parish memorials.
The parish memorials
are located in prominent positions around the Island but I wonder how many people
in Jersey today take any notice of the lists of names inscribed on the memorial
panels. These memorials were and still are very important to Jersey, and the men
listed on them whether they died in the 1914-1918 war or other conflicts since
deserve and must be remembered for giving their lives so we can enjoy freedom
today.
