The Honor Roll Project - Glen Cove, NY

As part of Heather Wilkinson Rojo's Honor Roll Project, I have transcribed these Rolls of Honor in Glen Cove, NY to make the names visible to search engines like Google and Mocavo so that family researchers may find them. Please consider finding the Honor Roll(s) in your town or village and transcribing them on your blog or website. And even if you don't have a blog or website, see the Honor Roll Project for instructions on how you can submit a transcription.

This plaza is located at the intersection of School Street, Cottage Row and North Lane across from the Presbyterian Church pictured below.




Glen Cove, with its gorgeous views of Long Island Sound, is one of Long Island's older communities. The Civil War memorial here, which appears to my non-expert eye to be contemporary to the period, is evidence of that.



The left side of the monument.



The front of the monument, which reads:


DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO SERVED IN THE ARMY & NAVY OF THE UNITED STATES DURING THE WAR TO PRESERVE THE AMERICAN UNION 1861-1865

MY PARAMOUNT OBJECT IN THIS STRUGGLE IS TO PRESERVE THE UNION
ABRAHAM LINCOLN

This plaque is dedicated to Sgt. Major Daniel J. Daly of the United States Marine Corps. As stated on the plaque, Sgt. Major Daly was a two time Medal of Honor winner and was also awarded the Navy Cross and Distinguished Service Cross. You can read more about him here on Wikipedia.


This marker seems to have an older plaque remembering those Veterans who made the ultimate sacrifice during The Korean War, 1950-1954 and a newer one containing an honor roll.

Next to this is a monument with a plaque for men from the Local Union No. 1093, which would appear to be a Carpenters' union.

Like the Korean War marker, the one for Vietnam has an older looking plaque dedicated to those veterans who gave the supreme sacrifice during the Vietnam War and a much newer looking plaque with an honor roll.

Francis Arnett
Richard Brown
Charles Johnson
John McCarthy

This plaque donated by the local American Legion post honors Sgt. Ralph W. Young who appears to have been killed in WWII. It looks like the post is also named partly in his honor.



And this stone which looks much newer than the memorial, remembers Pvt. John E. Miller and his death in the infamous Confederate Andersonville Prison.



This plaque is a tribute to those Polish-American Freedom Fighters who made the supreme sacrifice in both world wars and was dedicated by the Polish American War Veterans of Glen Cove and vicinity in 1982.

And finally, this plaque names this park Veterans Memorial Plaza and dedicates it to all who served and will serve in defense of our country.


As I finished writing this post I decided to see if a quick Google search would yield any information about the Civil War memorial. It did not, but I did discover that a new WWII Honor Roll was unveiled last November in a different park in Glen Cove.

This roll of honor names those men and women who served in WWII who lived within one mile of each other in Glen Cove's Landing neighborhood. It replaces an old wood monument that had fallen into disrepair.

This monument sits just outside the entrance to Morgan Park, a park for residents of Glen Cove and Locust Valley. What a view!
