This grew out of my Down Da Road I Go Blog which now has become primarily what I'm doing and music. I was getting so much history in it, I spun this one off and now have World War II and War of 1812 blogs which came off this one. The Blog List below right has all the way too many blogs that I write.

Giving Her All for the World War I Effort
From the April 25, 2018, MidWeek (DeKalb County, Illinois) "Looking Back."
1918, 100 Years Ago
"Miss Celeste Firkins of Rollo has gone as a nurse somewhere in France. Alden Firkins went to Jefferson Barracks, Missouri, for training. Their brother Bruce is to enter the Army soon.
"Thus, Mrs. Sarah Firkins has been called to give three of her children to help this great fight for righteousness and peace in the world."
