Gananoque, Ontario is a small town situated on the St. Lawrence River in the heart of 1,000 Islands. It is one of hundreds of communities throughout Canada with war memorials which commemorate more than 110,000 men and women who lost their lives during both world wars. Over a thousand citizens from Gananoque and surounding areas served in the navy, army, or air force: 83 lost their lives in parts of Canada, and in the battlefields of Europe. Among the dead of Gananoque include a 15 year old solider, a father of ten, four sets of brothers and a Victoria Cross winner. <P>
Today the town cenotaph lists the names of those who died and few citizens are aware of their family backgrounds or their circumstances of their deaths. Geraldine Chase of Gannaoque and Bill Beswetherick of Kingston believed it was necessary to collect this information and perpetuate their sacrifices.<P>
Gananoque Remembers book is a tribute to those who gave their lives for our freedom.<P>

CIMETIÈRE MILITAIRE DE RIDGE WOOD Belgique
Le CIMETIÈRE MILITAIRE DE RIDGE WOOD est situé à 5 kilomètres au sud-ouest du centre-ville d'Ypres, sur la Slijpstraat, une route qui rejoint la Kemmelseweg (reliant Ypres à Kemmel N331). Du centre-ville d'Ypres on rejoint la Kemmelseweg via la Rijselsestraat, en passant par la porte de Lille (Rijselpoort), en direction d'Armentières (N365). À 900 mètres du carrefour se trouve le virage à droite sur la Kemmelseweg (qu'un passage à niveau rend plus facile à repérer).
Quatre kilomètres plus loin sur la Kemmelseweg, du côté droit, se trouve le cimetière militaire d'Elzenwalle, qui marque le croisement avec la Slijpstraat. Le CIMETIÈRE MILITAIRE DE RIDGE WOOD se trouve un kilomètre plus loin sur la Slijpstraat, après un petit carrefour décalé.
