In approximately 1924 this memorial was erected on behalf of the local branch of the Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire (I.O.D.E.) and dedicated to the local war dead of the First World War. Inscriptions were later added to honour the local veterans of the Second World War and the Korean War and, in October 1986, the stele was relocated from a location near the old municipal courthouse to its current location.
