Image

This roll of honour hangs in the Longbush (Southland) kindergarten.  It is unusual in that it includes those who were enlisted with the Home Service.

The men of the district listed who were killed in action are: Alexander Black, Ira Rubel Evans, Leslie William Beer and A. Piercy. 

[We have not been able to find any record of 'A. Piercy' - if you can help us identify this man please email [email protected]  This record for John Piercy on Cenotaph may be the 'J Piercy' listed as serving in the war, in mentions his brother as 'T. Piercy, Pomona Road, Invercargill'.]
