The Logie Secondary School Roll of Honour

As those listening to the Tay Talk In on Radio Tay AM yesterday will know, I gave feedback about what happened to the Logie Secondary School's Roll of Honour, dedicated in 1951. I quote our City Archivist about the Logie Secondary book written by Peter Murphy, the last Head Teacher of the school:

"A copy of this book is available for people to look at here in the archives and also at Local History, top floor Central Library...

I think we're all agreed that the memorial perished in the fire.

The Central Library volunteers have put together a WWII roll of honour for all Dundee at http://www.dundeecity.gov.uk/roh/main.htm

and searchers can be directed to that site for more info about the Logie fallen.

On sampling the first and last entries for Logie RoH, for example, I see that the Library RoH has fuller details of RJ Anderson at http://www.dundeecity.gov.uk/roh/45.htm and Thomas Young at http://www.dundeecity.gov.uk/roh/1885.htm."
