Names of Men From Nebraska Who Gave Their Lives in the World War

The following list contains all of the names of Nebraska men who have fallen in the World War, as the same have been announced by the bulletins of the war department, together with their residence and the date of the announcement from Washington. There is little doubt that a number of errors have been made in the transmission and publication of these names. Nevertheless it is the most complete and accurate list which can now be obtained. At a later time a more adequate account of these men from our state who have laid down their lives in the world's great cause will be published by the
Historical Society.
