What have you learned about him? What was he like? What fascinates you? It’s all so exciting these connections!
I have learned so much about him. His mother remarried and he was raised in Los Angeles. I have copies of his draft card from WW1 and WW2. I couldn’t find him for a while in his late teens. He was in college somewhere but I haven’t figured that out where yet. He came back to LA and married his first wife. There were 2 after that. That was a surprise but it was California.
I am not sure why I have been so fascinated by this ancestor. Maybe because he lost his father when he was only 2 years old. Maybe because his mother was able to move on as a widow in 1900 when women had limited opportunities and there weren’t even food stamps in those days.
