The Honor Roll Project - Sea Cliff, NY

As part of Heather Wilkinson Rojo's Honor Roll Project, I have transcribed these Rolls of Honor in Sea Cliff, NY to make the names visible to search engines so that family researchers can find them. Please consider finding the Honor Roll(s) in your town or village and transcribing them on your blog or website. Some rolls are long and some are short but there's no deadline, you can take as long as you need to transcribe an honor roll.  I've learned so much about local history through this project and when someone finds the name of an ancestor in one of my posts they are grateful and excited! And even if you don't have a blog or website, you can ask me or another participating blogger. I would be happy to create a post to share your photos and transcription!

Sea Cliff is a picturesque village on Long Island's North Shore. These rolls of honor are in Memorial Park which is small but has breathtaking views of Long Island Sound. (This photo was taken in late March and therefore at a safe distance from others.)




This memorial remembers all who served in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam but lists only those who gave their lives.

These plaques are in the walkway.
