The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Story, a local history Website sponsored by the
Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County, is pleased to announce
the premiere of Gold Star Veterans at
http://www.cmstory.org/ww2.
The project is based on files in the Library's Carolina Room that record
information about the men from Mecklenburg County who died during World War
II. The site includes photographs, a searchable database of Mecklenburg
County war dead and links to related sites. It also recognizes the people
who created the original files following the war. Related W.W.II links are
included under "Learn More." Information within the site will be of interest
to historians and genealogists.
The site was featured in the Charlotte Observer on January 27, 2000 at
