Knox during World War I

We are trying to create a list of men and women who served in the World War I. If you know someone who served, please add their name to the list. If you know more about any of them, if would be a fitting tribute to them if you would also create a biography of them. Until then, the only thing we can share with viewers of this page is their name.

Biography

We would like to start a biography for each of these people with the basic data about their military service and anything else you care to add under one or more of the following categories as appropriate:

• Photo
• Birth (date, place, parents)
• Education
• Military Service
• Marriage and Children
• Occupation
• Death (date and burial)
• Other Media (newspaper articles, service papers, obituary, etc.)
• Gallery (photos)
