The Beaverton and Thorah Cenotaph was unveiled on June 10, 1924 and dedicated in memory of the fallen men in the Boer War and the First World War. It featured a white stone statue of a First World War soldier on top of a black marble shaft. The four white pillars at each corner had large electric glass bulbs that were lit at nighttime. 

The Committee of Arrangements composed of Reeve D.W. Wallis of Beaverton, Reeve John Ross of Thorah, Councillor Charles Dukelow of Thorah, Mrs. D.W. Wallis, Mrs. F. Talbot and Mr. Peter McMillan are to be congratulated on the inception of the undertaking in 1922, to the final unveiling and dedication. 

Children of the schools and choir took part in the ceremonies. Brigadier-General J.A. Gunn, C.M.G, D.S,O., officiated and had a distinguished military career. Mrs. (Col.) Sam Sharpe gave an address reviewing the events preceding going overseas of the units from the County and their service abroad. She referred to the historic event of the departure of the 116th Battalion from Beaverton under the command of her late husband Col. Sharpe, M.P. 

In 2010, Mrs. Dorothy MacPherson directed her Citizenship Award be used towards the restoration of the cenotaph. An Adhoc Committee was established of representatives from Beaverton, Thorah, Eldon Historical Society, Beaverton Horticultural Society, Beaverton Special Events, Beaverton Legion, Beaverton Lions Club and the Township of Brock. The committee raised money and received funding from the Department of Veteran Affairs.

The monument was cleaned and repaired, the base was repaired and the white pillars were replaced with four flour urns. Benches were purchased and a 24 foot flagpole installed. The walkway was widened to accommodate wheelchairs.

A re-dedication ceremony was held and attended by descendants of those named on the cenotaph. The Uxbridge Pipe Band performed and included The Maple Leaf Forever, written by Alexander Muir, who taught at Beaverton. A trumpeter played the Last Post from the balcony of the Hamilton House Hotel. The ceremony was recorded on video as were eight interviews with Veterans at the Legion and Lakeview Manor. A reception followed at the Legion with displays of each person listed on the cenotaph.

Pte. Harry Brown V.C.
10th batt. C.E.F.
May 11, 1898 - Aug. 16, 1917

"For most conspicuous bravery, courage and
devotion to duty. After the capture of a position,
the enemy massed in force and counter attacked.
The situation became very critical, all wires
being cut. It was of the utmost importance to get
word back to Headquarters. This soldier and one
other were given the message with orders to
deliver the same at all costs. The other
messenger was killed. Private Brown had his arm
shattered but continued on through an intense
barrage until he arrived at the close support
lines and found an officer. He was so spent that
he fell down the dug-out steps, but retained
consciousness long enough to hand over his
message, saying 'important message.' He then
became unconscious and died in the dressing
station a few hours later. His devotion to duty
was of the highest possible degree imaginable,
and his successful delivery of the message
undoubtedly saved the loss of the position for
the time and prevented many casualties."

On June 3, 1920, the original cenotaph was unveiled by Mrs. Annie Jones, both her sons, Benjamin Hugh and Isaac William, and her half brother, Wilbert Lean, having given up their lives during the First World War. The names of twenty heroes were inscribed on the cenotaph.

The Apsley Cenotaph was built from efforts of community groups (Women's Institute), provincial governments, private sponsors, regimental associations and veterans' organizations. It was located in the center of town at the intersection of Burleigh Road and Wellington Street, adjacent to Apsley House. The cenotaph was flanked by two war prizes, a 7.92 mm caliber Maschinegewehr 08 (a German built version of the 1908 Maxim heavy machine gun) and a 7.58 cm inenwerfer (a Light Rifled Trench Mortar).

In 1936, the cenotaph was relocated in front of the old Municipal Office Building (current location of the Royal Bank and Apsley Food Bank). It moved again in 1951 to its current position in front of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 381. Following the second World War, the names of the eight soldiers who died during the war were added to the cenotaph.

In October 1982, the machine gun and the round ball on top were stolen and never recovered. The trench mortar was moved inside the Legion and the large ball was replaced with a smaller diameter ball.

Body Content

The Fenelon Falls Cenotaph was originally erected to commemorate Veterans of the First World War and was located at the centre of the village, on the island, close to the Falls. It was erected by the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 238 and citizens of Fenelon Falls, Fenelon Township and Verulam Township.

Much of the old village was constructed along the waterway, on land with a 99 year lease from the Federal Government, formerly administered through the Department of Railways and Canals. The Federal Government did not renew the lease when it expired and evicted everyone who was along the waterway, including the cenotaph, families, businesses and most of the village's community infrastructure.

In 1957, the cenotaph was moved to a small park beside the post office. The cenotaph was updated to include Veterans of the Second World War and Korean War. In 1992, the park was rededicated as Veteran's Memorial Peace Park. A Vimy Oak has recently been planted on site.
