Murrysville Community Honor Roll

Two tall granite monoliths. One commemorating the Forbes Road which fronts on the memorial. The road was built by General Sir John Forbes in 1758 to enable his British troops to capture the French fort that was located at the conjunction of the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers in Pennsylvania, now the site of Pittsburgh. The other contains an attached bronze plate with the names of those from the greater Murrysville area who served in World War I and World War II.
