HELLO MARGE & CHARLES,

I'm not sure if you're looking for specific towns or men who served in WW I
and/or any who died in battle. So I'll pass on two articles about two
brothers from Hingham, the COLE brothers. Edward Ball Cole died an ignominious
death in France and an American Legion Post is named in his honor in HIngham:

Edward Ball Cole....

Charles Cole....
his brother who survived went into a life of public service:

Don't know if this information is helpful or not, but it's pretty
comprehensive for an article.

Best regards,

Dorothy
