Roll of Honor

                               Roll of Honor

The following information came from a small ledger that at one time was prepared by and

was in the possession of the John F Appleton Post #25 Sons of Veterans Organization that

appeared to be very active in the Farmington Area from the mid-1880s to sometime in the

1940's, perhaps 1950's.  The Post's holdings were donated to the Farmington Historical

Society by Fay Corbett, in part, and by Lucille Fronk.
