Artefact #: 448

This story map chronicles the life of a WWI soldier from a remote mountain community in Ashe County, North Carolina to the battlefields of Europe's Western Front. Each slide within the story map displays quotations from the journal itself, and beneath the quotations is information from secondary sources that substantiates the soldier's movements along with his 120th Infantry, 30th Division, Company E.

Images seen throughout the story are taken either from the journal itself or from WWI materials relating to the time and place which correspond with the journal entries, but they are not from the journal author. A full listing of sources used for this project can be seen at the end of the story map.
