SOLDIER SUMMARY:

The soldier pages contain information that is available from a number of resources. The following hyperlinks are active where the information is available:

Soldier Name: Veteran Affairs Canada, Canadian Virtual War Memorial

Soldier Number: Library and Archives Canada, Attestation Papers

Cemetery: Commonwealth War Graves Commission, Debt of Honour Register

Remembrance: Maple Leaf Legacy Project, Remembrance of Canada's War Dead

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.  Using that summary, combined with the key references, a summary of the events leading up to the death of the soldier has been prepared.  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.

A summary of all the soldiers is contained on the Web Blog "Great War Soldiers of Milton, Ontario CANADA".  Please also be sure to purchase your own copy of "Milton Remembers World War I - The Men and Women We Never Knew" by John Challinor II and Jim Dills, edited by Ken Lamb.
