Installed in 1925, they are cast with the names of over 169 local men from the church and district who died serving in the First World War. One bell has the name of Prince Maurice of Battenberg, the only member of the royal family to fall in the war, and one is dedicated to The Unknown Warrior. <br> <br>One of the volunteers who is researching the men named on the bells – of whom nearly all records have been lost – was told by someone at the Imperial War Museum that this was the only set of war memorial bells they had heard of where the names of the fallen were actually cast into the bells. Others may have an inscription of some kind but the names are listed elsewhere, for example on a plaque. <br> <br>We hadn’t realised it was so unusual to have the names of the fallen cast into a chime or ring of bells, and we are trying to find out if there are in fact any others like this – as opposed to dedications to one or two people. Mr Donovan suggested your readers might have the knowledge to help.<br> <br>The bells were cast by Gillett and Johnston and are played with a clavier (or, in the past, an electro-pneumatic tune-playing machine, which is long gone). Gillett and Johnston apparently only supplied bells of this kind (though on a much larger scale) to one other Baptist church, Park Avenue Baptist church in New York City which became the Riverside Church. <br> <br>I hope you can help.<br> <br>Many thanks<br> <br>Philippa <br> <br> <br><b>Philippa King<br></b>Development Manager<br>Memorial Community Church<br>395 Barking Road, Plaistow<br>London E13 8AL<br>020 7474 6603 (church office)<br><a href="http://www.memorialcc.org">www.memorialcc.org</a><br><i>Support our Bell Tower Appeal at <a href="http://www.justgiving.com/momorialcc">www.justgiving.com/momorialcc</a><br></i> <o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:white'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div>
