Lest We Forget

Those that died in the First and Second World Wars are commemorated in several places - the Books of Remembrance in the Peace Tower on Parliament Hill in Ottawa; the Virtual War Memorial of Veterans Affairs Canada, and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

Note: The WW2 veterans are not in the Family Tree which I have limited to those born before 1920.
