Some information has turned up that has caused me to change the timeline for the memorial going missing - I've updated this page (scroll to the bottom) http://thewarmemorial.blogspot.co.uk/p/memorial.html with the details.
Basically, I previously thought the memorial was stolen in 1992 - I now believe that it was a different memorial stolen in 1992 and this memorial was most likely taken in the early 1970s. Proving this may be difficult though!
It'd be helpful to track down some people who were in the church during the time it was closed, I'm going to start by contacting the conservation officer at the local authority, I know she was very interested in the church when it was closed.
This blog presents information about the 62 men named on the WW1 memorial from St James Church, Toxteth. Use the tabs below or the search bar to navigate the site. The Names page has links to each man. Please leave comments or email me at thewarmemorial@gmail.com
