'Friends Not Forgotten'
In Memory of Reg.#1833,
NWMP Constable George Albert Knox
Vet. Merle Armstrong of 'O' Division recently submitted this information and photo of George Knox's gravestone.
Merle's research on graves has reminded me to extend my thanks and deep appreciation to all volunteers, Vets, members and friends who are so generous with time, interest and help with our database.
Thanks Again to all and all!
George Knox was born about 1866 in Ontario. He joined the NWMP on July 3, 1886. He was posted to 'Depot' for about three years after which he decided to purchase his discharge. Merle Armstrong reports that Cst. Knox's conduct in the Force was rated as very good.

George died on June 27, 1913 and he is buried in the Jerseyville Cemetery, Jerseyville, Ontario
The inscription on Cst. Knox's stone is worn due to the weather and is difficult to read.
