Records of the Victory Hall Association consist of dossier files and index cards containing basic information on over 8,000 men and women from New York City who died in military or civilian service during World War I. Dossier files, which are arranged alphabetically, consist of an index card listing the name of the deceased, rank, military or naval unit, name and address of a relative, a portrait photograph, the Victory Hall Association's correspondence with the family, and in some files, a typed military record prepared by the Association. Correspondence consists primarily of the Association's standard request for a photograph and biographical information about the deceased and the family's reply. Dossier photographs are copy prints prepared from those loaned by the relatives.
