North Cumberland Memorial Hospital was established in 1947 as a memorial to war veterans. Originally one of several Red Cross outposts in the province, its operation was later transferred to a local board of directors funded by the Department of Health. The current facility was built with local support and fundraising and was opened in 1966. The hospital is dedicated to veterans of the First & Second World War from the Pugwash, Nova Scotia region.

North Cumberland Memorial Hospital is currently approved for short stay care plus palliative care beds. The hospital provides a mix of in-patient, out-patient, ambulatory care clinics and health promotion services. NCMH is home to a Collaborative Emergency Centre or CEC that provides 24/7/365 urgent and emergent care as well as primary health care services provided by physicians and nurse practitioners and provide diagnostic services like laboratory and diagnostic imaging. Emergency Health Services Nova Scotia has a facility on the property to house ambulance staff and equipment and as well, an air ambulance landing area is located on site.

This memorial is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

In 2018 records from the First World War became public and Dara Legere, vice-president and secretary of the Joggins branch of the Royal Canadian Legion started to research the veterans. He discovered that there were 10 missing names from the Joggins area, including a case where a family didn’t know they had a cousin that died in the First World War.

With help from the Gray family and Gray Concrete Foundations, who donated the concrete to fix the cenotaph; Liberty Enterprises and John Kellegre, who worked on the plaque, all ten of the missing names were able to be added. A garden and flagpoles were also later added with the project being coordinated by the Municipality of Cumberland, Veterans Affairs, the provincial gov., and the Legion.

This memorial is dedicated to the war dead and veterans of the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, and in the service of peace. A house to house campaign for funds to erect a cenotaph to honour the men and women who served in two World Wars and the Korean conflict was undertaken in District 10 during the month of February 1984. The campaign was sponsored by the Advocate District Development Association (A.D.D.A.), formerly known as the Advocate Action Association, and included the communities of Fraserville, Allenville, Spencer’s Island, East Advocate, Advocate Harbour, West Advocate, New Salem and Apple River. According to official reports, the area had the highest rate of enlistments of any area in Canada east of Ontario. Plans for the cenotaph were developed by a committee consisting of Ashley H. Morris (Chairman), D.K. Gamblin and Carson Spicer. The stone structure with a black African stone plaque was to be located in front of the Fundy Tides Recreational Centre, Advocate Harbour. The canvassers were: Holly Spicer, Roland Berry, Walton Rector, Don Gamblin and Carson Spicer. The Development Association was optimistic that District residents would respond generously and that the cenotaph was planned to be erected in the Spring of 1985. In a letter to the Halifax-Chronicle Herald, in Amherst, Nova Scotia, on 22 September 1985, the Chairman of the Cenotaph Committee advised Mr. Tom McCoag (a correspondent) that a cenotaph was to be unveiled on Sunday, 10 November 1985, at 2 p.m. to “honour those men and women from this district who served in the two World Wars and the Korean conflict.” The cenotaph was made possible through the generous financial support of residents in this part of Cumberland County and by men and women throughout Canada and the United States who served in our armed forces and who originally came from this area. Colonel Stanley D. Rhodenizer, former secretary, New Brunswick Command, The Royal Canadian Legion and retired commanding officer commanding New Brunswick Corps of Commissionaires and at that time a resident of Amherst, was the guest speaker. There were as well a number of national and provincial dignitaries who were invited to take part in the ceremony. A reception was held in the Fundy Tides Recreation Centre immediately following the ceremony.
