Robert Sullivan,
Commander of American Legion Post 263, and Casey
Lore, Commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post
1756 each received a copy of the book,
Generosity, The Story of Logan County During The
Great War, for their respective organizations.
The books were donated
by Bill Donath, author of the book, as a
commemoration of 100th Anniversary of Armistice Day.
History buffs who wish to learn more about Logan
County and WW I can do so at the Lincoln Public
Library and the Logan County Genealogical &
Historical Society by asking to see the digital copy
of the Logan County War
History Committee collection on computers at these
two locations. The history was compiled in 1919,
lead by the Abraham Lincoln Chapter of the Daughters
of the American Revolution.
Logan County veterans, who
wish to purchase a signed copy of the book, will
have an opportunity to do so on November 11 at the
Logan County Tourism
office in the Lincoln Depot and on November 12 at
the American Legion Post in Lincoln during their
respective Veterans Day observance services. The
reduced price, for veterans only, on those two days
will be $15. Normally the cost is $35 at the Logan
County Genealogical & Historical Society, across the
street from the Depot, and at the Gift Shop at
Lincoln Heritage Museum, Lincoln College. The
additional $20, at those locations, goes to the
support of the work these two fine organizations do
for Logan County.
