VETERANS
WHO SERVED IN THE
MEXICAN
BORDER WAR A
- Z |

|

Shown
below are military veterans who served in the Mexican Border War
and are known to have
resided in Madison County, Iowa. This war is significant to Iowa
because the entire Iowa National Guard was called into service
and deployed in this war. So, any Madison County residents who
were in the National Guard during this period probably fought in
Mexico. |

County
Coordinator's Note: Little
effort has been made by anyone to compile comprehensive
information regarding those who served in the Iowa National
Guard and were called up in the Mexican Border War. The County Coordinators
are therefore reliant on descendants for obtaining data for this
list. Your inputs are encouraged and welcome.
