Works Progress Administration Veteran's Grave-Registration 1940-1941

Back to the main menu


During the Depression years of the 1930's, the federal government sponsored many programs to help alleviate national unemployment. One of those projects, operated under the Works Progress Administration, was a state by state veteran's grave location and registration program, including one in Florida. Begun on the eve of the Second World War, the project was aborted before completion by America's pre-war national mobilization.
