Imagine having war memorabilia locked away in a box in the family home for decades and not knowing it was there?
Like many war stories, the contents of this particular box and how it was rediscovered could be one of a feature film.
Ross Brydder's grandfather was one of six children, the two eldest boys being that of James and Mervyn Ross who were from Wellington Mill.
Mr Brydder told the Mail how his grandfather never spoke about his older brothers or the fact that he had a wooden box which included their World War I medals, a dairy and two dead man pennies.
The box was then passed on to Mr Brydder's father and it wasn't until he passed away in 2016 that they uncovered it.
"No one knew the significance of the box until it was found by accident," he said.
The Ross brothers arrived in France in June but in different battalions.
Mervyn, fought in Fromelles, the famous battle which killed 5,5000 Australian soldiers in 24 hours.
He died just three weeks after being sent away for the war.
His brother James, died in August and just down the road from his brother at Pozieres.
What was also found in the box was what is colloquially known as the 'dead man pennies' which are large engraved memorial coins given to the mothers of soldiers who died in first World War.
The pennies also have the soldiers names engraved on them.
A diary written by Mervyn was in the box as well, which detailed how the brothers crossed paths just eight days before Mervyn died in action.
Historian Jeff Peirce said when he found that out, it almost brought him to tears.
"There was no other proof other than his diary that they saw each other," he said.
On the same page where Mervyn mentions seeing his brother, he said he had a near miss when a 60 pound shell hit his trench.
"Slightly shell shocked," the diary stated.
In 2009 Mr Brydder's mother received a call from the Australian Army to say they believed her uncle Mervyn's body was one of 250 unidentified at Fromelle.
For a soldier's name to be on the headstone of a grave at Fromelle there needs to be DNA proof of who they were but this has been a difficult task for Mr Brydder's family.
He said his grandfather was one of six and out of that six, he was the only one to have children and they were two daughters.
So the Ross name has not been able to be passed on.
Until 2017 Mr Brydder also didn't realise that his great uncles' names were not on their local Dardanup Anzac memorial plaque until he got a call from Mr Peirce.
Mr Peirce said over the last decade he had been researching World War I soldiers from across the South West and cross referencing them with their local memorials.
He found a staggering amount of soldiers were missing off a range of memorials.
Mr Peirce found seven names were missing from Dardanup's memorial and as he started working with the shire, Dardanup District Resident Association and the Wellington Mill Association, two more soldiers were uncovered.
Wellington Mill committee member Mike Hall had already done research on soldiers from his locality, so when he saw Mr Peirce's list and he was able to add to it.
Seven became nine and the groups went to work on how to have the soldiers recognised on the memorial.
Dardanup District Resident Association member Jill Cross said the whole Dardanup Memorial needed work as it the layout didn't allow for people to commemorate Anzac Day in a safe way with its close proximity to the road.
After extensive research, collaboration and getting funding, a range of improvements were made to the memorial in time for this year's Anzac Day service.
Improvements include the reconfiguration of the memorial to face the Dardanup Hall to improve safety during service, new paving which include 'Lest We Forget' within the brick work, repainting of the memorial and addition of 'Lest we Forget' on the memorial, new curbing and expansion of rose garden.
The Shire of Dardanup, Department of Veterans Affairs, Waterloo Diggers, Dardanup and Districts Residents Association and Wellington Mills Community Association all contributed funding to the project.
Following the Anzac Day Service on April 25, a rammed earth wall will be constructed for display of a Waterloo Diggers Plaques with funding for this addition provided by the Waterloo Diggers and its members.
Ms Cross said this year's Anzac Day would be very special as they would be acknowledging the changes to the memorial.
"This year we are marching up Doolan Street, all the school kids get involved and it will be extra special because we will have two families of the Ross and Knables represented," she said.
Shire president Mick Bennett said Anzac Day was a very personal day for him and couldn't do what we do now because of what the soldiers did.
"I take a lot of interest in this sort of stuff, I try and instill in them [grandchildren] we wouldn't have this life if it wasn't for them," he said.
Other names that have been added to the plaque include G.H Beckett, W.N Peterson, D. Alexander, E. Spencer, A.P Turnbull, A.T Knable and A.E Cross.
The average age when these nine men were killed was just 26 years old and the average length of service was 13 months, Mr Peirce said.
Mr Peirce said A.P Turnbull was a well known soldier that was born in Dardanup's Princep Park but because his family moved to Esperance and he went to school in Perth he wasn't associated with the locality.
Most of the men worked at the Wellington Mill, which at one stage was the largest timber mill in the southern hemisphere.
