La plaque en hommage au soldat Elsworth Albert Chapman a été érigée à l’Église méthodiste Newtonbrook Wesleyan après la mort de ce dernier pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. Il a été tué au combat à Passchendaele, en Belgique, le 1er novembre 1917.
Newtonbrook Wesleyan Methodist Church was located at 1 East Yonge Street. In 1925, the congregation joined the United Church and moved to a new larger church in 1962 located on Cummer Avenue and became Newtonbrook United Church. The church is now known as Cummer Avenue United Church. The plaque is currently in storage at the church.
