    Roll of Honour of Nairnshire

    u NAIRNSHIRE ROLL OF . HONOUR. ROLL OF HONOUR OF NAIRNSHIRE Containing Names and Addresses of those in each Parish who are serving their King and Country in the great European War. Every effort has been made to give a complete and accurate Roll, but the Pub- lisher does not hold himself responsible for any omissions or errors* T. R RAMAGE, Nairn, March, 191J. PRINTED AT THE COUNTY PRESS, NAIRN. Nairnshire Roll of Honour. T"\ AIRNSHIRE has responded nobly to the call of her King statistics herewith | I and country, and from the JL / given, it will be seen that the county has reason to be proud of her position, and should rank amongst those counties in Britain that have given the largest percent- age of their manhood in this the most serious time of Britain's history. Each parish is given separately, so that it can be seen at a glance how many have gone out from these districts, and to what units they belong. The Navy is largely repre- sented ; also the Seaforths and Camerons, for which Nairn- shire is part of the recruiting area. The total number serving is 894, to which Nairn Parish contributes 548, Auldearn Parish 112, Cawdor Parish 95, Croy Parish (Nairnshire part) 40, Ardclach Parish, 40. Of this total 163 belong to the Naval Services, 288 to the Regular and Kitchener's Armies, and 439 to the Terri- torial and other voluntary services. The above figures represent a percentage of 9.59 over the whole county ; 20.65 of the male population ; and 64.73 of the latter from 18 to 40 years of age.
