St Aidan’s and St Saviour’s are CofE; Brownedge St Mary’s is Roman Catholic.   Along with the Methodists, each has their own memorial.  St Mary’s does not have a “Roll of Honour” listing all the men of the parish who served, so the number of men shown in the table above as serving from the Catholic community is an estimate based on the averages for the other communities and the ratio of fallen:served.
