Robertson Lispenard Cleveland was my father. He was investment counselor, but was still in college when we got into WWI, and he volunteered in the Army. He served in France until the end of the war, when he came home and back into the banking business. In 1941, he was 47 years old, marr and with two young children, but he tried again to volunteer in the Army. They rejected him because of his age and dependants, so he tried the Navy. Same story. So then he went to the Marine Corps, and talked them into letting him take the physical, which he passed with flying colors, and spent the rest of the war in the Corps. His biggest regret was that he didn't get overseas that time. That's my Hathaway connection, plus a few more! If anything here rings a bell, I'd love to hear from you. I haven't found a new cousin in some time now! If not, I apologize to taking so much of your time! Barbara Armstrong Cleveland Cofer (In MO, but born 7 raised in NYC).
