North Dundas Field of Crosses
This website is dedicated to those from our local area who died in the service of our country.
The men included were either born in the Township of North Dundas or had a connection to North Dundas at the time of their deaths.
The completed biographies are the work of students from North Dundas District High School. This is a work in progress. Students are still researching the military service records of the Second World War local men, and they will be adding more biographies, details, and information in the future.
Please remember this is the work of students. Any errors or omissions are not intentional.
