Strangely (and I have no idea why) there is a memorial to pupils of St Chads College, Wolverhampton in Dumfries! It is in the Chapel at St Josephs College (which itself is a memorial).
This memorial is another which is not listed on UKNIWM.
OS Map Ref: NX 979 756

Very stange indeed. Even if it is not in Wolverhampton at least it is on public view and not in a skip or hidden away by overly p.c. headmasters or ministers.

Having read your caption I would like to add that the St. Chad's College plaque was erected around 9 years ago by past pupils of that school. St. Joseph's College Chapel was chosen as a location for the plaque as St. Joseph's was run by the same religious order as St. Chad's, and there was no suitable location at St. Chad's. |

That's very interesting, thank you, this memorial is currently not listed on UKNIWM and I will be sending a registration form and photos to the Imperial War Museum in the next few days and I will include this info. If you care to PM me (or post) your full name, I will be glad to credit the source. |
