In 1919 the Midlothian Advertiser invited local people to submit
names for inclusion on the West Calder war memorial

The memorial does not contain the names of all the men from the parish
who fell in the war

Some of the names on the memorial do not match up exactly with
army records - in a few cases men are listed by the forename they
were known as at home rather than that on official documents

The spelling of some surnames also differs from official records
