We have a family book, lists almist everyone on my dads side from the
1760s to now.
The first here fought in the revolution.
No mention, but a dam good chance he was involved in the
Whiskey Rebellion, time, place, auction list of his stuff included bags of hops and a still,
Another ancestor was housed😉 at Andersonville His, family went and paroled him.
Not sure who else, paternal or maternal.
Mom's dad was a WWII vet. Army European theater.
This thread got me to call the local Vetrans affairs office, to try and
get records. A DD-214 is available, really hoped to acquire a full record.
He was a bit wild, up until his death. Know he was demoted several times
would love to find out details. They tell me that's not available, darn
shame. Loved the man, worshiped him. He had a good enough discharge to get benefits and Gram did too, so there wouldn't be anything there
too bad. Or surprising. Wouldn't change a thing except let us know
more of the story.
Gonna get that DD-214. They are building a Vetran's Walk on the Post Office lawn alongside the memorials. Gonna be a brick there
with Pap's name.
