Our Graves County Genealogical Society is making a book of people from Graves County that have served in the armed forces.

If you know of anyone that has served or is presently serving, and they are from Graves County, we would appreciate their name, rank, and period of service.

The book will be kept in the Graves County Public Library for use by those seeking information on their ancestors or descendants.

The information can be emailed to the Society President or Webmaster

The photos below are from a book rescued from a house being demolished

in Tampa, Florida. We are trying to find the descendants of those in the photos

in order to return the book to the family. The gentleman standing was photographed in

Rio De Janeiro. If you know any of the folk, please contact the webmaster
