Charles William Kelsey (1877-1975) trained in England and emigrated to Montreal in 1922. His stained glass designs can be found in England, Australia, the United States and in over sixty-eight churches in Canada. His war memorial windows were commissioned between 1921 and 1956 including ten memorials for World War I, twenty-two memorials for World War II and ten memorials for both World Wars.
The Congregational World War I and World War II memorial windows were removed from the old St Andrew's United Church on Hart Street and placed in the stairwell of the College Moderne Inc, then a post secondary college in Trois-Rivieres, Quebec. College Moderne was later sold and converted to an apartment building. The war memorial windows are in memory of those who were killed in both World Wars. The figure of Christ with arms outstratched is depicted as are the badges of the Navy, Army and Air Force. The window was commissioned in 1949 for $1,450.
