Orwigsburg Honor Roll
Veterans of all Wars
This list is not 100 % complete. It has not been updated since the 1950 dedication program was published. However, we are in progress of updating it and are working with the local Veterans organizations to develop a cumulative list.
This is very cumbersome undertaking and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to conduct our research.
If you have any information or would like to help us with this list, please contact us at: memorial@orwigsburg.net
