Hey, Lynda...
<> I don't have any documentation at all. We can't even verify where Amariah
is buried to the best of my knowledge. He's turning into a real bugger!
I am (when time permits)going to try getting Amaziahs military record
because I want to see in person the one paper that has Amariahs name on it.
It one item that they are crediting Amaziah with as far as something with
returning equipment. Some of the time line is sketchy as far as Amaziahs
whereabouts at the same time this stuff was returned and where. I don't have
my notes with me. My daughter just got married and all this has been a back
burner for a while.
I found it by accident and was unable to print or find since.<>
This is all I could find in Ancestry.co. Is any of this what you were
referring to?
