Veterans' List Has Been Updated
The Veterans' List at St. Luke's website has been recently updated. We have added more veterans to our Veterans' List, bringing the total to 196 veterans. We expect there could more as we do more research. The list can be found at the Veterans in St. Luke's Cemetery page: https://www.stlukesvictoria.ca/our-community/st-lukes-historic-cemetery/pages/veterans-in-st-lukes-cemetery. Or you can go directly to the list at this link, where you can check if your relative's name is on the list. Clicking on the More Information link at the end of each line will take you to other information we have on that veteran such as attestation papers or other web links. If you would like to add the name of a relative or friend who is a veteran whose name isn't on the list or send further information about the veteran, please contact Barb Prescott by e-mail, or St. Luke's Office by e-mail, or phone 250-477-6741.
