World War II Bayonne Soldier Deaths


The Hudson County Genealogical & Historical Society offers this database courtesy of member Bill Miller, who has compiled the official list of 300 soldiers from Bayonne who were killed in action, died in service, or missing in action during World War II.

If you've been collecting data on a particular aspect of Hudson County genealogy and would like to see your work posted here, please contact projects@HudsonCountyNJGenealogy.org

This database is the result of the work of Bill Miller who has given permission for The Hudson County Genealogical Society to post it on its web site for free access. 

Photo by Shafer: 2nd Lt. Stephen Raymond Gregg of Bayonne of the US 143rd IR, 36th ID who received the Congressional Medal of Honor for valor. Gregg survived World War II and died in 2005, living long enough to see a Hudson County park named in his honor. Read more about him on Wikipedia and The Free Republic.
