World War I draft registration cards for men age 18 to 45 may list address, birth date, birthplace, race, nationality, citizenship, and next of kin. Not all registrants served in the war. For New Hampshire’s cards see:
*United States. Selective Service System. ''World War I Selective Service System Draft Registration Cards, 1917–1918''. National Archives Microfilm Publications, M1509. Washington, D.C.: National Archives, 1987– 1988. ({{FHL|1711715|film|disp=On 17 Family History Library films beginning with 1711715}}.) These cards have been digitized and are searchable online. See [[United States World War I Draft Records|WWII Draft Records]] for more information.

Washington, D.C.: National Archives, 1987– 1988. ({{FHL|1711715|film|disp=On 17 Family History Library films beginning with 1711715}}.) The cards are alphabetical for each county or registration district. The records include the date of birth and may mention the name of a close relative.
 
When searching for a person’s registration card, it helps to know his name and residence at the time of registration. The cards are arranged alphabetically by county, within the county by draft board, and then alphabetically by surname within each draft board. Most counties had only one board, large cities had more. Finding an ancestor’s street address in a city directory will help you determine the board number if he lived in a large city.  


Haller’s Army. During World War I, the Polish Army in France, commonly called Haller’s Army, recruited about 20,000 soldiers from among Poles living in the United States. Two forms that contain genealogical information were filled out by the recruits. Form A contains each volunteer’s name, address, marital status, number of children, American citizenship status, age, physical description, signature, and recruiting station and the date. Form C contains additional information such as the volunteer’s birth date and place, the address of his closest relative in America and closest relative in Poland, his previous military service, and remarks. All volumes of the collection are available through:
