Colpoy's Bay Memorial
This memorial honours the men from Albemarle Township who made the supreme sacrifice in the World Wars. Although the township no longer exists, having been amalgamated in 1999, the Edgehill Cemetery here in Colpoy’s Bay still pays honour to its fallen heroes with this memorial and several military graves found throughout the grounds. Four names from WWI and three from WWII are listed, as well as Korea and Peacekeeping.
