This post also taken from a Calaveras newspaper but Amador names mentioned. (This was on right side of paper & all copied). Yesterday morning the people of Martell were thrown into a state of excitement when it was learned that John H. Fullen had been found dead in the rear of his saloon at the depot. He was boarding at the home of his sister who resided near the saloon, and the lady, Mrs.. Robertson, feeling uneasy because her brother did not come to breakfast at the usual time, got Mr.. DuFrene to make investigation as to the cause of delay. Mr.. DuFrene went to the side window and looked into the bedroom of Mr.. Fullen and called to him several times and receiving no reply effected an entrance and when he reached the bedside discovered that Mr.. Fullen was dead. Coroner Potter was summoned, a jury impaneled but there was no evidence that Fullen died from other than natural causes; presumably heart disease. Deceased was born and raised in this county and has a wide circle of friends, who deplore his sudden demise. (Amador Record) The new moving picture show, belonging to Richards of Angels Camp, which started up in Sutter Creek, with the intention of permanently locating there, was compelled to quit, owing to the unfavorable conditions presented. The three identified with the outfit passed through Jackson last Saturday on their way to Calaveras county. The handicap of $2.50 per night that they were required to pay for license while Ratto was allowed to fun by free grace of the Amador county authorities, was too much for them to buck up against. They exhibited an attachment for $112 levied against them by the local electric light & power company for electrical power, etc. They were running only two weeks, and of course the electric service could not have amounted to that much in that space of time. They left their paraphernalia in the hands of the authorities, and trotted home, bearing with them, however, a very poor opinion of the "square deal" as dealt out in Amador county. (Ledger) Nick Milosavich while at work in the Argonaut mine Tuesday, got thrown off the water skip just below the 3300 level into the shaft with the result that his breast bone was broken and the ribs on his left side torn loose. The unfortunate man was taken to the County Hospital, where it was deemed advisable to perform an operation with the hope of saving his life, but it was of no avail, the man dying this morning.

Am posting this to both Amador & Calaveras lists, because the newspaper is from Calaveras but recognize names people are searching for in Amador county. (This comes from an area in the newspaper surrounding my great-grandmothers sisters obituary, & the right hand side was not copied, so cannot read all the column, but maybe enough to give someone a clue).(You can see the obituary of Dolores Bardsley at http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/CalaverasObits?post Frank & Austin Gnecco -------Valley Springs last Friday-------shipped a coop of chickens to---------.

There appears to be a discrepency in the cost of copying compared to the previous post. No mention of the Friends of the Archives. Beware of forwarded information. Charles Paul Keller ================== WWI DRAFT REGISTRATION CARDS AT NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION, SOUTHEAST REGION (Date Issued: August 23, 1999) The following information is provided by the National Archives and Records Administration, Southeast Region, in response to recent postings on several list serves concerning World War One (WWI) Draft Registration cards maintained at our facility. Unfortunately, the original posting, and subsequent, altered postings provided incorrect information about these holdings and related reference procedures. To better serve the public and the research community, we provide the following information and guidance concerning the WWI Draft Registration cards: 1. The original cards, in excess of 24 million, were received at our facility a number of years ago. Upon their receipt, they were boxed and arranged by NARA employees. The original arrangement was by state, thereunder by county or draft board, and thereunder alphabetically by the registrant's last name. The cause for arrangement by draft board instead of county is due to the size of certain cities. For example, New York City had in excess of 180 boards, Chicago had over 80. As a result, we require a street address when searching for cards in most large cities. 2. The cards were later microfilmed by representatives of the Genealogical Society of Utah in the exact order they were originally arranged; each NARA regional facility has a copy of the microfilm for the states in the region that it serves. Any patron wishing to use microfilm will find the cards arranged exactly as they are in the box. The arrangement of the cards has never been changed. 3. NARA, Southeast Region, has provided a request form for these records for a number of years. The forms can be ordered via e-mail (archives@atlanta.gov), telephone (404-763-7383), or in writing (NARA, Southeast Region, 1557 St. Joseph Avenue, East Point, GA 30344). 4. At a minimum, the following information is required from the requestor for NARA staff to conduct a search for draft registration cards: o Full name of registrant o Complete home address at the time of registration (to include county) o Name of nearest relative 5. Additional information, if known, which can improve the thoroughness of a search includes: o Birth date o Birthplace o Occupation of registrant 6. In July, 1997 NARA established an updated fee schedule for services provided to the public. The minimum mail-order fee for photocopies for each WWI Draft card was increased from $6.00 to $10.00, a fee which includes both sides of the card. Patrons need not request that both sides of the card be copied, and patrons need not submit a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) with their request. Walk-in customers can make self-service photocopies of the original records for $0.10 per side. Please contact individual regions for their policies regarding microfilm copies. These fees are copying fees only; there is no charge for searches when a record is not located. The staff of the NARA, Southeast Region, remains committed to assisting our patrons in anyway possible, including the timely and accurate dissemination of information concerning our holdings and services. The WWI Draft Registration cards represent only one of many significant collections of historical records maintained by the Region that are invaluable for genealogical research.

I found out that my father was born in Fosteria CA, not Sutter Creek as I had thought. I can't seem to find Fosteria. Is/was it close to Sutter Creek? Would a birth certificate for a Fosteria birth be filed in the same place as a Sutter Creek birth certificate? What newspaper might have been published in 1900 that might have reported a birth? Any help is appreciated. === Searching for: THOMAS; ENDRES; SCHMITZ; WILLENBORG, TAPHORN; KRUPP. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
