The Milner Family papers document the family’s activities through a series of letters and photographs between family members in Indiana, Indiana, Kentucky, Florida, Virginia and Baltimore, Maryland from 1914-1954 with the bulk of the material dating from 1917-1920. Daily activities of Ralph Milner during his enlistment in World War I and his time with the United Fruit Company are of note, as are those of Russell Milner during his experience in the Student Army Training Corps (SATC) at Perdue University.
