Ce mémorial est dédié aux citoyens de la localité qui sont décédés durant les Première et Seconde Guerres mondiales et la guerre de Corée.
In 2018 records from the First World War became public and Dara Legere, vice-president and secretary of the Joggins branch of the Royal Canadian Legion started to research the veterans. He discovered that there were 10 missing names from the Joggins area, including a case where a family didn’t know they had a cousin that died in the First World War.
With help from the Gray family and Gray Concrete Foundations, who donated the concrete to fix the cenotaph; Liberty Enterprises and John Kellegre, who worked on the plaque, all ten of the missing names were able to be added. A garden and flagpoles were also later added with the project being coordinated by the Municipality of Cumberland, Veterans Affairs, the provincial gov., and the Legion.
