    3. Kathy, Besides the WWI draft registration card information which Nancy points out is online for Dade Co., have you checked the 'Florida WWI Card Roster' or Induction Records? Both are at the State Archives here in Tallahassee and I would be happy to do a lookup. The Florida WWI Card Roster (series 1204; on microfilm) gives: place of residence place & date of induction birthplace & date military organizations served in with dates of assignments and transfers rank whether served overseas date and type of discharge (honorable, etc.) 'percent disabled' The induction records (series 1142) are in file boxes. I have looked through them but I don't have notes on what information they might contain in addition to the information in series 1204. There is also a book published by the Florida Dept. of Military Affairs: "Florida Veterans of the First World War, All Services 1917-1919" which gives lists of dead and wounded for each county in addition to other veterans. Let me know if you need a lookup! Jeff Birdsley Tallahassee
