If you know the unit, you may be pleasantly surprised to find what you can on Google. I've used this method when the specific individual's record were not available.Craig Mansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06567686559055003349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889959884897163049.post-12209253819413506212009-12-08T01:28:42.704-05:002009-12-08T01:28:42.704-05:00Mavis,

I also have a ggrandfather who served in WW1 & wish I could know more. I do have his record of service (brief) and I also got the pay vouches, which didnt provide much. I have decided to research his unit & find out more about what they did, especially in France where he was. I may luck up & find pictures of his unit at Archives II in MD--that's another avenue. Just a thought--I have often filled the gap between 1880-1890 with tax & voting records, as well as court records (county & circuit, primarily.) Thats a shame about the letter you got back from the court, but dont let it deter you;) Stand tall & know that this effort is worthy & worth it. I'll stand with you;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
