Otter Lake

 

Location:  Seguin Township, Parry Sound   N 45 18.225  W 079 56.790
Found at 56 Rankin Lake Road, beside the Seguin Pioneer United Church.

Dedicated to the men of the former Foley Township (now Seguin Township), who gave their lives in the two World Wars.  This memorial rests beside the Seguin Pioneer United Church, which shares services with it's sister church of the same name in Orrville.
The memorial here is relatively new, the original cenotaph was located at Foley Memorial Hall and dedicated in 1953.  A small plaque and the original cross sit beside the newer memorial.
