Cummington Square Memorial, Niagara Falls
Back to back at Cummington Square, there are two memorials.
The first monument, privately erected, is from World War I. For each of the four men,
his regiment, date, and place of birth is given. These were the only Chippawa casualties
from this war.
The inscription on the World War I Memorial reads as follows:
In memoriam erected by John Carter of the Village of Chippawa in memory of his son
and comrades George Newton Carter, Archibald Davidson, Isodor Blundy, Elijah Logan to keep
freedom inviolate and unsullied they feared not death and meeting it, they won the victor's crown.
The second memorial is devoted to the casualties of World War II and the Korean War.
The inscription on the adjacent memorial is as follows:
WORLD WAR II
1939-1945
KOREA
1950-1953
