Uploader's Notes:

Son of Kenneth D. McRae, of Lennoxville, Quebec, and the late Catherine McLeod McRae. His two brothers, one of whom fell, also served in the same Regt. Mentioned on the Scotstown, Quebec, Memorial, as having died after the war (which was incorrect). Wigney and the Book of Remembrance spell his last name as MacRae as well as middle name as Wallace.
