These included men born from Sept 11, 1872 to Sept 12, 1900. I have added information and corrections [in brackets] to the information from the smaller index. In addition, I have separated the kinship and residence information from the place of birth into two separate columns. Pvt. Frank Schumann at Ft.

Adam photograph collection Alexandria Library, Special Collections Where to go from here      Researchers are encouraged to view the original registration card to which this index refers, as  the index does not include all of the information on the cards, such as street address of next of kin and detailed information about locations. Researchers should also be aware that these are only the names of people who registered for the draft. Most did not actually serve in the military during World War One. These registration cards have been microfilmed by the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration. A copy of this microfilm is available through the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and is housed at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, UT and available in branch family history centers throughout the world. The draft card microfilm reels are listed in the church's Family History Library Catalog under UNITED STATES -- MILITARY RECORDS -- WORLD WAR I. The World War I Draft Registration Cards (with digital images) Index (24 million records) is available online from Ancestry.com (requires payment). The smaller World War I Civilian Draft Registration Index (1.2 million records) is free and includes most Oregon registrants, but does not contain the street address for the next of kin or detailed information about the location where the registration was completed.
