Canadian Great War Project




"The Canadian Great War Project is intended to promote interest in Canada's participation in World War 1, commonly referred to as the Great War, to research the Canadians who participated in the Great War 1914-1919 or other nationalities who served in the CEF." (from their website).
Here is a listing of people listed on this site who had some reference to the name "Colquhoun". I was going to include listing for each sept name, but the listings for "Cowan" alone was 91. This site is easily accessable with a great search engine. The only person left off the list was buried in a churchyard with "Colquhoun" in the name. All others either had Colquhoun in their name, were married to a Colquhoun, or a Colquhoun was listed as next of kin.
