James Bethel Gresham...
On 03 Nov 1917, he became the first American fatality for World War I. This Memorial Day weekend we should all remember all of our family that have gone before us, but we need to remember the soldiers who served our country and the many that gave their lives for the United States of America!
I apologize for the quality of these photos that I took at the Evansville Museum, but I hope it is good enough to show how a community can remember a fallen soldier.
Below is the Gresham home that is in Evansville Garvin Park. He is buried in Locust Hill Cemetery.

I took a tour of this home by Garvin Park while I was in grade school during a school trip. We walked through the home. One of my past memories I won't forget. Thanks for sharing.
