Mrs. Ham mentioned that my grandmother was a major mover in the World War I Veterans Auxiliary in Goldsboro. I could find no mention of that organization.
However. it is possible that she meant the American Legion Auxiliary of Post 11 at 2933 US Highway 117 North between Goldsboro and Mount Olive.
The American Legion was established right after World War I and I would guess the #11 designation would be for how early the post was established, making Goldsboro's one of the first ones in the state.
Was There Such an Organization? --Cooter
