DeKalb County, Illinois, Goes to World War I


From the August 1, 2018, MidWeek  "Looking Back."

1918, 100 Years Ago.

"A large number in Ohio Grove attended the farewell party at Cortland in honor of four boys who will leave soon for different training camps.

"Roy Whitman, Lloyd Warber, Harry Selgren, and Fred Housewert are now with the colors."

I looked these names up in DeKalb County war casualties and none were listed.  So, that is good news.
