This memorial was constructed in 1959 in memory of the servicemen who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars. It was built by the late stonemason Mr. Spiecher and constructed of native rock from the surrounding area. The funds for the construction were raised by the members from the Montreal River Branch 310 of the Royal Canadian Legion, Elk Lake, Ontario, and are also maintained by this branch.

In 1995, the approach was improved and the mortar was repainted. The unveiling and dedication by Reverend Chabot, and President Irvince McKay was held on Sunday, August 2, 1959, at 2 p.m. The occasion also marked the 50th anniversary of the incorporation of the Township of James.

A humorous but sad incident occurred prior to the memorial's completion. On the laying of the base, a concerned branch treasurer, Clarence Foote, questioned the president, Len Mallinson, as to where the funding was coming from to pay for the project. The president retorted jokingly, that the "money better come or I'll take a slow boat to China" (a popular song of the time). Sadly the president after attending an evening dance, died in his sleep. The remaining members grabbed the torch and raised the money to cover the cost of the monument by the time of its unveiling.

Latchford Cenotaph was dedicated on November 11, 1978. It was designed and constructed by Bert Larose, a Second World War Veteran who never made it overseas as he had just finished basic training when the war came to an end. Bert's health was failing when he completed the cenotaph and he was assisted by Terry Inglis in installing it on the pedestal.

Originally, there was a Second World War helmet on the cross, but it was vandalized a few years after it was mounted. The maple leaf was fabricated and welded from 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch round iron. Royal Canadian Legion Branch 629 volunteers painted the maple leaf white, to prevent rusting that had been occurring. The names of the fallen from the First and Second World wars were added to the base.

The concrete Maple Leaf was constructed by summer students through a federal grant program during the summer of 1979. They also mixed and poured the concrete walkway and stairs up to the cenotaph.
