Inverurie and District War Memorial 1914-2014

ebook
In the Centenary Year of the commencement of the Great War, the aim has been to trace the history of Inverurie War Memorial from inception to completion. The events have been traced using newspaper reports [1] [2] but with reference to Inverurie Town Council Minutes and other sources. Cemetery visits were also made, where possible, to confirm dates and relationships. Information on the artist, Mr James Philip, who was an employee of Arthur Taylor & Co of Aberdeen, the company of monumental masons who carried out the work, is also included. Other memorials within Inverurie commemorating both World Wars have also been researched as, during the course of the project, it was discovered that there were servicemen named on those memorials whose names were not on the Town Square memorial.
