Lieutenant George Cockburn Tablet

Municipality/Province: Toronto, ON

Memorial number: 35090-442

Type: Plaque

Submitted by: Toronto Church Memorials to Soldiers of the Great War Project – Department of History – Toronto Metropolitan University

A tablet in honour of Lieutenant George Agnus Cockburn was unveiled in 1917 on the east wall of Chalmers Presbyterian Church. Lieutenant Cockburn died of his wounds on May 19, 1916, while serving with the Canadian Infantry (Western Ontario Regiment). The church sanctuary at 1266 Dundas Street W was destroyed by fire in 1945 and it is highly unlikely the tablet survived.
