The soldier pages contain information that is available
from a number of resources. The following hyperlinks are active where
the information is available:
IMPORTANT NOTICE JANUARY 2010:
The Maple Leaf Legacy Project has changed their web site to http://www.mapleleaflegacy.ca
(from *.org) and so all of the links on this Milton Soldiers web site to
that site are broken. Until such time as we are able to repair all the
links, please use the MLP search function to find the Milton Soldiers by
name. If you need assistance, please e-mail me directly (see WEB
PROBLEMS in the footer to all pages).
The summary of the service is taken from the soldier's service
records, if they were available from Library and Archives Canada.
A complete copy of the service record is available in electronic and
paper format in the Alex Cooke
Memorial Archives at the Milton Historical Society. As of
August 2008 a complete copy of the service file is available on-line
at CEF Service Records. You
can search that file by name or service number. Please note that the
paper records in the Archives do not include all of the documents
available by way of the hyperlinks from this web site. As of December
25, 2008 all of the Nominal Rolls of the CEF Infantry Battalions,
including Milton's 164th Battalion are available on-line at CEF
Nominal Rolls.
Using that
summary, combined with the key references, a summary of the events
leading up to the death of the soldier has been prepared "where
possible". The
research information available is as noted on the Canadian Expeditionary
Force Study Group web site Matrix
Project as well as in the Library and Archives Canada On-Line
War Diaries. Additional details are also provided from the textual
references, such as Nicholson's "Official
history of the Canadian Army: Canadian Expeditionary Force 1914-1919".
A complete copy of the text, maps, sketches and Google Earth overlays
has been transcribed from the original by Richard Laughton and Lynn Lane of the CEFSG.
Please also note
that we have now placed a number of the Milton Soldiers in their appropriate grave
site position using Google Earth. A tour of the cemeteries identifying a
number of the grave sites is now on line at "Milton
Soldiers Google Earth". More grave sites will be added as the
2008 project continues. |
| The following is the
list that has been compiled of those soldiers from, or associated with
the Milton Victoria Park Cenotaph, that were included in the 2007 Remembrance Project.
We have recently completed the 2008 with the soldiers on the
Haltonville Cenotaph. Please note that there are soldiers listed
that are not on either cenotaph which will be documented in October
2008. As well there is at one name that is incorrect on the Victoria
Park Cenotaph (Mary Patterson), that is being removed from the cenotaph
in October 2008. An unidentified soldier (Wesley Roberts) has
existed on the Haltonville Cenotaph since it was created. There is
no record of this soldier having been killed in action nor in fact his existence.
The colouring of the cell with
the name distinguishes the location of the memorial and the status of
the research on that soldier. Click on the family name to
