The County�s Contribution to Man Power to the Cause of Democracy Numbers Around Twelve Hundred. -- List is Doubtless Far From Complete.
Desiring to make a permanent record of the county�s contribution of manhood to the nation in this great war, the Bayfield County Council of Defense set out to obtain a list of the young men who are or have been in the military or naval service of the United States during the war, and the work of compiling the list was entrusted to Harvey Irish, of Bayview, who diligently strove to make or obtain as complete a record as possible. However, there are doubtless a number of inaccuracies nevertheless, for the compilation of such a record presents difficulties almost impossible to overcome. The list as compiled contains over 1,100 names and is as follows:
(Note, May 2000: Not all of these men and women enlisted or were drafted in Bayfield County, nor did all serve in Wisconsin units. Also, as printed originally, the list was alphabetized by first letter of the surname only.)
