1929 Roll of Honor
This database is an index the 1929 publication,
Roll of Honor, which contains the locations of the burial places of
soldiers, sailors, marines, and army nurses who served in any of the
wars of the United States and are buried in Illinois. The database
contains more than 72,000 names. The General Assembly mandated in 1927
and 1929 that Illinois publish the Roll of Honor as an aid to patriotic
and veteran organizations honoring deceased veterans on Memorial Day.
The Grand Army of the Republic, United Spanish-American War Veterans,
Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans of the World War,
and the 33rd Division War Veterans Association were among the various
organizations that gathered the information.
The database was created and donated to the Illinois State Archives
by Fred Delap of Kansas, Illinois. Delap, a volunteer with the Edgar
County Genealogical Society, has also indexed the names of Illinois
veterans of the War of 1812, Winnebago War, Black Hawk War, Mexican
War, Civil War, and Spanish-American War.
