Veteran’s Memorial Committee looking for more information on those who served from our County
(Salisbury, MD) The Wicomico Youth & Civic Center Veteran’s War Memorial is searching for further information on the citizens who gave up their lives in service of their country. The memorial honors Wicomico Citizens who gave their lives during combat in service to the United States. Memorial committee member Ed Hearthway has been diligently collecting information on fallen service members and is looking to gather more information. If you have a family member or friend that you have information to share about, please email Ed at hearthwaye@aol.com.
The project has been made possible by the generous donations of area citizens, businesses and civic organizations. And, although the organizers are pleased with the support the project has received, ongoing support is needed to keep the project funded. Donations are being accepted at:

Why isn't there any names of our veterans who fought for the union or confederacy during the War Between the States? That is one biased organization sponsored by the County government.
ReplyDeleteDue to the historical records available, the only complete and reliable information the Wicomico War Memorial Committee could find began with World War I.
