The Parish Magazines record only two men from St Michael’s killed in the Second World War, compared to one hundred names from the First World War on the memorial. This may mean the First World War names represent the war dead of the St Michael’s district but the Second World War names only represent active congregants. Neither of the two were added to the war memorial.
