Eugene was a PFC in the US Army in 1941 when he died in a car crash in Sheffield, AL. On his death certificate (which I have), he is listed as "Married", and his surviving spouse is given as "Sarah Pursley, age 16". Given their ages, Eugene could not have been married long. In fact, according to my grandmother, no one in the family knew he was married until he died. Any help you can give would be much appreciated. Where would a soldier likely be stationed near to Sheffield, AL? Is there a nearby base in Alabama or Tennessee? Does anyone know anything about Sarah (I assume it is likely she re-married at some point, but who knows)? Thanks Glenn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
