The Roll of honour

This is a large framed parchment by the war memorial in the Abbey.

The names are listed on the roll in alphabetic order by the first letter of
the surname, not necessarily in proper alphabetic order beyond that. Only names beginning with A or B have so far been checked and corrected. Use any other with caution!

I’ve broken the list up into sections for each letter. There were no names listed beginning with “I”; O to Z awaits more transcribing:
