"Canada's Aid to the the Allies and Peace Memorial" includes the American Bank Note Company Great War Honour Roll. The American Bank Note Company won a contract with the Government of the Dominion of Canada to produce paper currency and stamps in 1897.  Although mostly mechanical work would continue to be done in Canada, in Ottawa, the more skilled labour would be accomplished in New York.

There is a preservation copy of "Canada's Aid to the Allies and Peace Memorial" in Library and Archives Canada.

Inscription

The Honor Roll

During the years of World War 1, 1914-1918, approximately 59 employees enlisted to fight, six of whom were killed in action.  Of those whose attestation papers were found, the majority were born in Ottawa or within 50 km of the city.  Only 4 were born in the UK: Thomas Forgie in Ayr, Scotland; Norman Hailswood in Preston, England; William Roll in Willington, England; and Frank Thomas Wood in London, England.
