Michigan Soldiers
WWI

From the Book
"Michigan in the World War"
Contributed by Sue DeHaan


I found a book called "Michigan in the World War". It has the names (and about a paragraph of additional information) of the men and women who were decorated for acts of gallantry performed during the World War (the dates given are 1917-1918). Names are listed below and if you recognize an ancestor just contact me and I will get back with you regarding with the information. The book does NOT give parent's names, birthdates, or any other information about the family, so unless you recognize the specific name given, I won't be able to tell you if they might be related to your family. It basically gives their military unit, date of the action they received the medal for, sometimes a little information about the incident, and their place of residence.
