Blackheath, Rowley Regis - Roll of Honour for the Blackheath Ward 1914 -18.
Transcribed & kindly
contributed by Chris Brettell
The Roll of Honour for the Borough of Rowley
Regis is divided into the various electoral wards - Rowley, Blackheath,
Cradley Heath, etc. This is the Roll of Honour for the Blackheath Ward. A
few of the names are duplicated in the transcription of the War Memorial of
Rowley Church. The Memorial for the men of Blackheath is in the parish church
of St Paul's, Blackheath. According to a history of the church it is in the
Lady Chapel - but according to the Rev. Garner, a recent vicar, it is the
Church Porch. I would agree with him, I think.
