Series: 6: War History Commission, 1910-1925 : The Wisconsin War History Commission was created to preserve a record of
Wisconsin's effort during the war. Acting first as an extension of the
Milwaukee County Council of Defense, the War History Commission continued on
its own for several years after the war ended and the Council of Defense had
ceased operations. The Milwaukee Public Library served as the repository for
Milwaukee County with William E. Jillson as its representative. This series
is comprised of materials specifically collected by the Commission and
contains correspondence, ephemera, soldier lists, photographs, and documents
on the efforts of local organizations. There are also materials from
soldiers, such as correspondence, experiences, and diaries, that the
Commission collected as part of its mission.
