Just wondering why the number of dead is shown as 47 on the Brooklyn memorial, seems that there are a lot more names than that,or are the names shown of those who went to war and returned.Is that why the 'motherland' inscription is only on one face? It would be great if someone could clarify this for me. Also I think the memorial was unveiled in 1923, according to the W.C.C. conservation plan (which cites the Evening post 1923). Just curious as to where the 22 september 1922 date came from. Cheers.
