  • Notes 
    • December 13, 1918 - Kaukauna Times
      Mr. John Brooks of Forest Junction received an announcement from the war department on November 30 that his son Gerhard of the American Expedition forces in France was reported as missing in action. This is the second loss which Mr. and Mrs. Brooks have sustained, their son Arnold having died in a hospital in England. A third son is still in France and as of now has passed through the war unharmed.
