Illinois XII

This small, yet, elegant marker is in a public park in downtown Wheaton, Illinois. Located at the corner of Karlskoga Ave. and Hale Street, it is easily found and entered through its beautiful gate.



Fourteen of Wheaton's best are honored here.





Their names are not listed upon the marker, so I have included them for you. If you click on a name you will be taken to a page with more info about the soldier.

ANDERSON, GREGORY


BLASEN, RICHARD

There was next to no information available about this memorial and, as always, I would love to hear from someone who knows anything about it. There is an email on the left side of this page so let me hear from you about this site or any of the others sites on the blog, I like to know you are out there!

Next time, on the 18th, join me at 9:00am, when we will revisit Indiana.
