Service
On March 17, 1916, the Canadian government authorized the creation of a Nova Scotia forestry contingent consisting of 525 men. The "Nova Scotia Forestry Draft" was organized into three companies, covering various
parts of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. "A" Company was recruited from Cape Breton, Victoria, Inverness and Pictou Counties, while "B" Company was recruited from Prince Edward Island, Halifax, Cumberland and
Colchester Counties. These two companies initially mobilized at Truro. "C" Company, recruited from Shelburne, Queens, Lunenburg, Yarmouth and Digby Counties, mobilized at Yarmouth.
Wartime Heritage has identified 52 men not born or a resident of Yarmouth Town or County that enlisted in the Canadian Forestry Corps at Yarmouth, NS after March 17, 1916.
