7 thoughts on “Musselburgh World War One Memorials”
Hanita,
I have just been looking at the info posted under Musselburgh World War 1 & 11 memorials.
Perhaps we should speak.
Simon.
We have a relative missing from this lMusselburgh list Archibald HAMILTON from 81 New Street ,Fisherrow who died on route to the War at Gretna .How can we add his name to the official list ?
Hi David,
Thank you for your enquiry.
This list only refers to the names of those who were put on the respective memorials as requested by their families immediately after WW1. However, the service personnel who died in the Gretna/Quintinshill rail disaster are mostly buried at Edinburgh Rosebank Cemetery (you probably know this). I suspect his name may be on the memorial there.
As for adding his name to the memorial in Musselburgh, perhaps you might like to make enquiries at Northesk Church itself or Musselburgh Community Council.
All the best.
Cannot find name of my Uncle John Kay of 30 Promenade KIA 19 April 1917 at Gaza
Hi John,
According to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission website, Private John Kay is buried at Cemetery/memorial reference: VIII. C. 10 of Gaza War Cemetery. Do visit their website for more details (if you haven’t already).
All the best,

Trying to find memorial for dads brother John Kay of 30 Promenade, Fisherrow. Member of 7th Battalion Royal Scots based in Dalmany Street Leith. Sent to Gallipoli which he survived only to be sent to Palestine where he was killed on 19th April 1917. My dad was 2 days old when he was killed.
Hi John,
I’m not sure if this is your late uncle but there is a Private John Kay of the Royal Scots regiment honoured on the Livingston Parish Roll of Honour currently located in the Livingston Mill Farm Heritage Centre. I found this info on the internet. See if you know of an address or work connection for Private Kay to Livingston. Google in quotation marks “John Kay Royal Scots” and you fill hopefully find a link to the West Lothian War Memorials.
Best Wishes,
Hanita
