In 2012 the City of Kingston refurbished the area around Memorial Arena, and added a Memorial Wall, which names all of Kingston's war dead. Peter Gower was the lead in researching those names, and will talk about the challenges in working on that project.

 Peter was born in England, and came to Canada in 1967. He taught elementary and high school, mostly in Grey County, and since retiring to Kingston in 2000 with his wife Jean, he has spent much effort in researching Kingston's war dead, publishing Kingston Volunteers: The Thing To Do in 2008 on which this talk is based.
