This memorial was a joint project with Woodstock Unit 95 ANAVETS, Branch #11 Royal Canadian Legion and the Town of Woodstock.
The monument was designed and produced by Smet Monumnets of St. Stephen, N.B. The grey granite is the same granite used to mark veterans gravemarkers at cemeteries.
The only wording on the back is LEST WE FORGET and the two logos of the two veterans organizations.
The armoury is named in honour of Lieutenant-Colonel William Mulherin. He was born in June 1922 in Grand Falls, NB. He completed his education in Grand Falls and entered the Royal Military College in 1939. Following graduation, he was assigned to the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCLI). He saw action in the Second World War with the PPCLI in both Italy and Northwest Europe and after the war, he commanded the Carleton and York Company of the 1st Canadian Infantry Battalion in Germany. He also served in Indochina and attended the Australian Staff College. He commanded the 1st Battalion deploying to Cyprus in October 1964. He died in April 1966 at 43 years of age en route to the Hook of Holland, a town in the western Netherlands. During his military sevice he had been awarded the George Medal, as a captain and later the Canadian Forces Decoration.

Erected by Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 29, this memorial is dedicated to the local war dead of the First and Second World Wars. The original memorial was constructed in 1926 by First World War veterans to commemorate all local veterans who fought and died in the War. Prior to the Second World War, the memorial was upgraded (date unknown) and again upgraded after the War to include the names of those Second World War veterans killed in action. Annual ceremonies have taken place, at the memorial, on November 11th since its original construction. Current maintenance and upkeep is done by the Legion and Village of Plaster Rock.

The Millville monument was constructed in 1958 in memory of those who lost their lives in the first and second world wars. Former local president and district commander Lewis Jones and Royal Canadian Legion #56 had the memorial built. Lewis was born in Millville and served in the second world war. Col. J. Chester MacRae, also a world war two veteran, helped unveil the memorial.
The ground was donated by Frank and Ida Jones and the memorial funded by the legion.
Later more monuments were added, needs further research
