Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

A tablet in honour of Cooke's Presbyterian Church parishioners who gave their lives in the First World War was unveiled on November 14, 1920. Of the 31 men listed, four were sergeants, one was a corporal and 26 were privates. The service was conducted by Brigadier-General Rennie and Colonel William Beattie, both former members of the church.

The church at 88-90 Queen Street E closed in 1982 and the building was torn down in 1984. It is not known what happened to the tablet.
