The 52nd (New Ontario) Battalion, CEF was raised in Northern
Ontario during the Spring of 1915 with its mobilization
headquarters at Port Arthur (Thunder Bay), Ontario. The
Battalion joined the 9th Brigade, 3rd Canadian Division on
February 23, 1916 and thus began the trial by fire for the men
of the north in the trenches of France and Belgium.
After the war, the men returned home and the 52nd was
disbanded in the early 1920s with its Regimental Colours
laid-up in St. John The Evangelist Anglican Church.
This website is dedicated to the memory of all the men that
served in the ranks of the 52nd. May they never be forgotten.
