In 1918 the Kentucky Council of Defense began a program of recording the contributions of Kentuckians who took part in World War I. The Council appointed Fred P.

The volumes contain records of Kentuckians who served in the United States Armed Forces during the war. Other information provided includes members of the county council of defense and data about the county Red Cross, liberty loan campaigns, war savings stamps campaigns, food administrator, fuel administrator, four minute men, local draft board, conservation, and other war related activities.
