  • Toowoomba Railway Roll of Honour Board 1914-19
    Toowoomba Railway Roll of Honour Board 1914-19 Dedication This research is dedicate to all those who are recorded on the roll of honour board but especially to 425 Pte David McCarthy, 9th Bn, killed in action on 25th April 1915. Introduction This research was started after a visit to Toowoomba station in July 2015 and discovering that the 559 names on the impressive roll of honour board appeared not to have been identified or, if this work has been done, was not readily available. The aim of this initial research was to get basic details of those men listed; it is not intended to be a comprehensive account of the soldiers on the roll of honour board or railways in the Darling Downs region. Sources used included records held by the Australian War Memorial, Canberra, and the National Archives of Australia. Consequently, there may well be errors and conflicting detail; the entries for each man are headline information only – anyone wishing to drill deeper should consult sources such as the soldiers’ personal papers, newspapers, unit war diaries and histories etc. In some instances, the ‘identified’ soldier may prove to be incorrect but at this stage the most likely identification is listed; details generally have been used verbatim from sources. One hindrance was ‘occupation’ as many do not have an obvious railway trade; it is possible that some had other jobs in addition to their railway employment. A line was drawn under this work in late 2016 still with eighteen names unidentified despite trying various sources. Most of the other names were identified with a good degree of confidence but readers are invited to take this work and refine it further.
