OCONTO
COUNTY MEN SERVING IN WORLD WAR I
The
following information was printed in the Oconto
County Reporter on Friday,
August 10, 1917. Each
county in WI had a draft
quota of men, dependent on the local population, who were required to
serve
in the U.S. Military. This list includes volunteers and draftees
serving
at that time.
Company
"M" 2nd Wisconsin National Guard was formed during the initial stages
of
the American Civil War (1861 -1865) and continued afterward
as an
active national guard unit and volunteer local fire fighting team
through
the late 1800's. Many of the people whose names appear below are
descendants
of those who served in the Civil War and Spanish - American War (1898).
Men
between the ages of 21 and 31 were required to register for the draft.
A local Exemption Board was established to oversee the draft process,
and
consisted, on this day in time, of:
