Lyn

 

Location:  Leeds and Grenville County   N 44° 34.663 W 075° 46.675  
At the edge of town, on Main Street (County Rd 46), overlooking a cemetery at the original site of the first Methodist Chapel in Canada.

Created in 2006 as a heritage project, this memorial stands tall overlooking the cemetery.  The names of those who served and where lost are inscribed on the wall.  A local millstone adorns the top of the memorial.
One of the names listed is that of Lt-Col Thain W. MacDowell,  who was decorated with the Victoria Cross, for his bravery during the attack on Vimy Ridge.

Marker text: (names of those killed are marked with an "+" and highlighted, wounded marked with an "*".)
