Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Offices in other counties Roster of OUR VETERAN’S Those who resided when enlisted, drafted or are buried in Greene County Indiana These are probably in need of some updating. The Civil War and World War II ones I forgot I had done - I was having problems of re-doing the formatting back when. I was able to do that - I am going to take these databases back into the Cemetery data base and in the future re-do them - BUT it the mean time I can add names on to the site under each War and also I will put into the cemetery data base if sent to me. Revolutionary War War of 1812 Civil War A-F Civil War G-L Civil War M-R Civil War S-Z Mexican War Spanish American World War I A-L World War I M - Z World War II A-F World War II G-L World War II M-R World War II S-Z Some World War II Veterans Korean Conflict Bay of Pigs Vietnam War Invasion of Gernada Persian Gulf Operation Iraqi Freedom - 2003 Peacetime Servicemen
Eulogy for a Veteran Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. When you awaken in the mornings hush, Do not stand at my grave and cry, -Author Unknown Not in vain did they serve . . .. . . but for our freedom! "Your silent tents of green I have compiled this from several sources that Ihave on hand of Greene county Indiana sources. that has been obtain till all possible data listed is obtained on a veteran. I have left the record number in the data base for now and the sort number for the cemetery so that we can eliminate any double enteries if they exist within each war. Iknow this is probably an incomplete listing of the veterans and their data. But it is a start to this data base project. Any military wars, conflicts etc. I am missing please let me know; also any veteran’s and their missing data. If you wish and have bounty or pension files numbers for the Revolutionry, Civil War, Mexican and Spanish American veterans; I can also add a column and included that info into this data base so others can have access to it Also there is a source that I have not looked into as to where you can find data on your Veteran especially if there is a military marker on the grave it is as follows: AMERICAN LEGION BURIAL REGISTRATIONS CARDS, it is housed in the Archives Division, Indiana Commission of Public Records at the Indiana State Library, 140 N. Senate Ave. Indianapolis, Indiana. An example of what can be found the lesser to the greast amount of information: AARON, James Owen: Serial No. 302959: Next of Kin (W) Fern: Address Jasonville, Ind.; Born 7 Apr 1895 Franklin , Ky.: Death 26 Jan 1928: buried Lebanon Cem., Wright twp.: Grave No. 4 Lot 238E, Blk 2: Co. I 126 th Ind. Inf., Army, WWI, Pvt.: Enlisted 16 May 1918; Discharged 29 May 1919If lucky you will also have the place of death and date of burial and cause of death. I am not sure but I think I have a list that contains all veterans from Aaron to Asdell that were buried in Greene county and that data has been abstracted into the data bases here in. There are some that are listed in peacetime that may belong to one of the other wars but no war has been listed for these men, only branch, or company etc. of service and I have not taken it upon my self to guess which one. When known they will be added to that war or conflict. And if served in more than one they will be listed under each war that they served in.
