Two memorials are posted inside the
Scotch Ridge United Church, honoring the men of the church who
volunteered for active service in the two world wars.
I would appreciate it if someone in or near St. James would stop at the church and validate my transcription, especially the name with the asterisk. Ralph Hannan
