This memorial was erected on June 24, 1987 for the 150th anniversary of the Patriots rebellion. It is dedicated to the 21 local patriots. Several people from Saint-Marc joined the Patriots from the area to fight at Saint-Charles on November 25, 1837. Nine of them were killed. The Saint-Marc parish corporation owns and maintains the lot.
