to page 2005-32] |
In 1917 and 1918, approximately 24 million men living in the United States completed a draft |
registration card for the World War [WWI]. These registration cards represent approximately 98% |
of the men under the age of 46. The total U.S. population in 1917-1918 was about 100 million |
individuals. In other words, close to 25% of the total population is represented in these records. |

In general, the WWI draft registration cards included the following information -- |
full name, home address [often just the County name], date of birth [and sometimes birthplace], |
age, race, and country of citizenship; [usually] occupation, [sometimes] employer; and usually a |
physical description (height, build, hair and eye color, disabilities) Additional information such |
as the name [and possibly address] of nearest relative, dependent relatives, marital status, their |
father's birthplace, and/or previous military training, along with the required individual signature. |
