The society has been busy recording the names on our war
memorials. We have details of Mexborough, Swinton, Conisbrough,
Manvers, Barron's Glassworks, Denaby Main, Barnburgh and Adwick-on-Dearne. Our gratitude to those who painstakingly compiled this section so the sacrifice of local people could be honoured..

Mexborough's war memorial stands as a testament to the high price the town paid in two world wars. There were 249 lost in the First World War, and a further 98 in the Second World War. It is humbling to see how many young men gave their lives for freedom, and moving to think of the grieving families they left behind in our community. The memorial is engraved as follows: To the undying memory of all the brave men of Mexborough who laid down their lives in the Great War 1914 - 1918 and of their comrades of this township who in offering an equal service were not called to an equal sacrifice'. |
