The Cenotaph in Navan, Ontario, honours 23 men who died in the South Africa War, World Wars I and II, and UN/NATO service. Who were these men, their parents, their siblings? Where did they live? Where did they serve? Where are they buried?
Eileen Vaillancourt and Laurie Watson of Navan have researched their stories and have compiled a book of their biographies along with pictures of the honour rolls kept in Navan’s school and churches.
