Silent Keys

HARG commenced in 1983, and since that time we have, unfortunately, lost a few members.

This is a place to list and reflect on the Silent Key’s that have, over the years, contributed to HARG at all levels.

This page contains information from earlier websites. There is some information missing.
As information comes to light, it will be added to the listing.
(If you have information which may assist in updating the listing, please send an email to Ian, at [email protected])
