Dixie, I have been trying since 1999 to get confirmation of my gr uncles
WWI service. I know he was in the Army along with his 2 brothers one of
whom was killed. All 3 are buried in Mt. Hope-Logansport. The one killed
has had his monument for years. I got the 2nd one's monument in 2000. The
3rd still nothing.
I did contact the Indiana State Archives last year. The man was very nice
and sent me several pieces of information, one of them an
************American Legion form but this man is no relation to me.
I have my 3rd uncles American Legion form but all it has is his name.
Each year they put an American Flag on his monument less grave. According
to powers that be his records were destroyed in St. Louis.
Maybe someone has some ideas to help me. The form with all the monument
information has been sent to Washington DC twice. The first they know
NOTHING about. Now they have had the 2nd about 2 months and no word yet.
I am about at my end of trying but I promised him at his grave I would
get his monument so how can I give up. Note: he died Oct 1936 when I was
3 years old. Sallie
