Erected by the town of Georgetown, this memorial is dedicated to the local veterans of the First and Second World War. In 1970 the first Memorial was replaced with a grey granite Monument. This Monument was constructed in memory of the Native Sons who Paid the Supreme Sacrifice in the First World War (1914-1918) and the Second World War (1939-1945). The 1999 the original brass plaque was refurbished and is now mounted in the Kings Playhouse, Georgetown. The brass plaque was rededicated on November 11, 1999, Remembrance Day, and unveiled again to the public by the Honourable Lawrance MacAulay, Solicitor General of Canada and His Worship Mayor Mark Gotell of the town of Georgetown.
