World War I ROLL OF HONOR Belpre, Washington Co., OH We have found it very difficult to secure a complete list of those who have entered the United States Service. A part of these have volunteered at different times and a part have been drafted. There are four post offices in the township and by our method of distrubuting mail persons do not all receive mail from the town in which they live. We are glad to give the Roll of Honor as complete as we have been able to make it. Harry Abbott Arthur Abbott Harry Anderson James E.

The first man from Belpre who fell as a martyr to the cause of world freedom was John Kenneth Christopher who was killed at Chateau Thierry. A little later Frank Browning died in hospital from pneumonia induced by a gunshot wound. These were our martyrs. Taken from the book: A History Of Belpre Washington Co., Ohio By. C.E.
