Acknowledgments

 

At first, this project was going to be much smaller than it is now.  That is, until I found a repository put together by the Directorate of History and Heritage (DHH)  DHH has put together a database of all of the war memorials across the country. This find changed my whole project:  Instead of mapping a selection of the memorials across the province, I was able to map all of them. (NB: I do not think that this is a complete list, but it is certainly a very good start.) The project, as it is today, would not have been possible without this preexisting database.

 

The mapping part of this project includes the use of both Google Maps and ArcGIS. I would have been unable to use ArcGIS if it weren't for the guidance and help of Siobhan Hanratty, the Government Documents, Data and Maps librarian at the Harriet Irving Library at the University of New Brunswick. This project owes her a great debt. Siobhan's patience, understanding, knowledge, helpfulness, and interest has made this project what it is.

 

I would also like to thank Dr Sasha Mullally and my classmates of the Digital History Seminar at the University of New Brunswick. Their feedback, encouragement, and help throughout this process has been most helpful and this project is better for it.
