Sneinton St CyprianWar Memorial
 The
War Memorial |
The War memorial which is located in the northwest corner of the church is
a rectangular brass plate with and surmounted by an arched top. A crown motif
is raised within the arch backed by a sunray design. Below this is the wording:
To the Glory of God
and in Grateful memory
of those who gave their
lives for King and Country
in the Great War 1914-1919 |
The inscription at the foot of the plate reads:
Grant them O Lord eternal rest and
let light perpetual shine upon them |
Eighty one names are recorded. Only one initial and the surname is generally
listed. No rank, service numbers or regiments are included.
Every name has now been researched, and details are recorded here where it
has been thought correct to do so. In instances where no positive relationship
to the parish was established the record has been left open. If more than one
possible identification has been found it has been highlighted by the use of
italics.
