The 55th Battalion was authorized on 7 November 1914 and embarked for Britain on 30 October 1915. It provided reinforcements for the Canadian Corps in the field until 6 July 1916, when its personnel were absorbed by the 40th Battalion (Nova Scotia), CEF. The battalion was disbanded on 21 May 1917.[1]

The 55th Battalion recruited in New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island and was mobilized at Sussex, New Brunswick.[2]
