Reed & Barton WWI Memorial Plaque - Taunton, MA - World War I Memorials and Monuments on Waymarking.com

In Taunton's Britanniaville section is the Reed & Barton company. Along W. Britannia Street, near the bridge over the Mill River, is a plaque on the outside brick wall.

The plaque is near an entrance to one of the buildings - on the other side of a window to the right. The plaque has a bright color to it, compared to other bronze pieces. The top of the plaque states the following:

"[Logo - Eagle with flags]
Roll of Honor

A memorial of patriotism and a tribute of honor to the following employees of the Reed & Barton Corporation who served in the World War 1917-1919
-"

Below that are names of 77 names in four rows of nineteen plus one.

On either side are flag holders, with small American flags in each holder.

I could not find any additional information about when this plaque was dedicated. The company still exists, and, if the company store is open, perhaps someone there might know. Reed & Barton Company is a major manufacturer of silverware, flatware, and other metalwork and has been in existence since 1824.
