Honor Roll Project - Memorial Day 2016 Contributors

Bedford, New Hampshire

The Honor Roll Project collects transcriptions and photographs of military monuments with the names of veterans.  These monuments can be found in parks, civic buildings, schools, and other places across the United States and in other countries.  You can see the complete list of Honor Roll contributions at this link:  http://honorrollproject.weebly.com/

The following volunteers have taken photos and transcribed thousands of names from monuments. It is a simple project, and these transcribed names online help to make the names of veterans available to search engines.  Family members searching online for genealogical or military information on relatives, ancestors or friends will be able to find these names and photos.

Here is this year's contributions for Memorial Day 2016.  Please thank them for their hard work and dedication by leaving comments on their individual blog posts.
