I have done some upgrade on the Veteran's site. I have found and added WWI
Draft Registration cards for the Veteran's that are listed that I was able to
find. Their names are highlighted on the pages and all you have to do is
click on the name to see the draft registration card. There may be some that I
have missed due to the spelling of the name or possibly they went by a
nickname or middle name rather than a given name. If you know of such discrepancy
let me know. Sometimes it can be found by their birth date. I have only
done those that were Drafted out of St. Joseph County and are listed on the
pages. There are more names for St. Joseph County in this database so if you
have a ancestor he may be listed if he served or not. There are 48 cards added
to the web site. Lots of information on these cards.

Does anyone know of a Jewlery shop that was called Bangs & Woods. I am working from an old photo - ca. 1900-1923 perhaps. The "Bangs" may be another word as it's in the shadows and hard to make out. There are printed ads with the words "South Bend" large enough to read. In front of the store front may be my grandfather Mordie Lee Woods and a display that says South Bend Watch Co. .... I think it says South Bend Indiana below it. My grandfather had a jewlery shop in Newton, Harvey Co., KS and later became a Optometrist and practiced in Newton. He also worked for a jewlery store in Olathe, KS. I am looking to find where this store was and any other information about it.
