    Things to remember when compiling a Roll of Honour, War Dead Monument, or Memorial Wall.
    Gather and supply all the townlands in the area proposed.
    If the Town, Townland, or Parish crosses the county line, establish if you wish to include the locations in the other county in your project.
    Establish how far you wish to go outside the different townlands, and put it down on paper.
    Decide what your criteria for inclusion are. Criteria used in the past include.
    (1) Born in that area.
    (2) Lived in that area.
    (3) Buried in that area.
    (4) Next of kin lived or were born in that area.
    (5)
    Decide the cut-off date for inclusion in your project.
    Decide if you wish to include those who survived the war.

    Kind regards.
    Tom.
