WWII Gold Star Veterans of Wyoming County New York
by
James Gillen

 

The citizens of Wyoming County, like many rural areas of New York State, made the supreme sacrifice during the second World War. James Gillen, a WWII veteran himself, spent years going through records, newspapers and speaking with families to come up with 103 men from Wyoming County who were missing or killed in action during WWII. Through the use of family photos, high school yearbooks and newspaper clippings from the era, 88 photographs were located to accompany almost every biography.
This book is to honor the memory of the men who gave their lives to protect our future.

Local historian Cindy Amrhein takes a close and critical view of territory negotiatons between the United States and New York State with the Iroquois Six Nations and finds evidence of dubious deals, bribes, faulty surveys and coerced signatures that may help explain why many of the Nations now feel they were cheated out of their territory.
