At a Town of Cornelius Board of Commissioners meeting, former mayor Harold Little recommended that the town erect a monument as a tribute to all Cornelius veterans on which their names would be displayed for all to see and honor. The board approved the recommendation and assigned the project to Assistant Town Manager Andrew Grant.

 To identify the names of veterans from Cornelius which would be placed on the monument for the public to see and honor, Mr. Grant asked for assistance from Cornelius’ American Legion Post 86.  Post 86 Commander John Washam appointed a committee of Legionnaires Gene McKinney, N.J. “Dee” D’Oria and Harold Little to assist him in the project   Contact information for both the Town of Cornelius and the American Legion Post 86 are posted to the left.
