About
The World War I questionnaire project was part of an effort to gather and preserve the history of Tennessee's involvement in what was then known as the Great War. On January 24, 1919 the state legislature resolved that a committee of 25 be appointed, to be known as the Tennessee State Historical Committee, part of whose duties was to "collect, compile, index and arrange all data and information of every kind and character relating to the part Tennessee has played in the Great War. "
Using From the Page, we are indexing these questionnaires so that soldier's information may be findable on the Tennessee Virtual Archive. Select information fields are pre-set, and examples of formatting are provided.
Thank you for volunteering with our project!
