This memorial was erected by the Vermilion Branch of the Great War Veterans’ Association (later the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 11) and unveiled 4 August 1930. It was built by William “Scotty” Swanson. An inscription to the local war dead of the Second World War was added during the post-war period. Currently it is used for the local Remembrance Day services.
