I am looking for the WW2 monument in Jacksonville Illinois. My Mom and Dad saw it approx. 30 years ago. My Mom thought it was on the square, downtown, the monument I found on October 26, 2007 was the civil war monument.
I am looking for information on Glenn Hammond, my Grandfather. His name is on this monument and I would like a picture of it. I am also seeking any information I can find on him.
Two years ago I phoned the chamber of commerce in J'ville and ask about this monument and they acted like they had never heard of it. I also phoned the J'ville American Legion, they had no knowledge of the monument. I also ask them if they had a list of the local men who served in WW2, they did not.
Any information you may have would be appreicated. Thank-you! :-)
