All through US history, our residents have defended our nation. At the onset of WWII, three wooden Walls of Honor were erected in Cornwall, Cornwall on Hudson and Firthcliffe. As young men and women enlisted (1941-1943) or were drafted their names were affixed to the Walls of Honor.

Cornwall's Wall of Honor, restored by Jay and Betty Ziegler, now hangs in the Cornwall Historical Society. There are over 600 names affixed to its panels. We honor their service by researching and archiving their histories.

The Andrew J. Maroney, Jr. Memorial supplements our WWII Wall of Honor. Andy, whose name appears on the WWII wall, was a founding member of the Cornwall Historical Society. This second memorial was created to recognize all our hometown service people.
