He could have used a middle name, or his mother's maiden name, or almost any name he cared to choose; recruiters weren't fussy. And there is little likelihood, unless he was *caught* at it, of the lie being recorded as a lie in his service record. However, you *could* always order up one of the records from one of the known soldiers and see if there's accidentally something useful in there. [That's how I discovered one of my great-greats had fought: he was named in his son's file as the person who picked up his son's final pay check, and his rank and unit were given.] And BTW, this family is in Warren County in 1860 Cheryl

I am still seeking my G-Uncle, Elijah Hamler, b. 1845, Sussex Co., NJ. Out of the ten children of William H. and Noyetta Hamler, Elijah ("Lige") is the only one that I have not been able to trace past the Civil War. He's also the only one of my Dad's Uncles whom I have a story on, passed from father to his son. This makes me think that Elijah died in the Civil War-- but how do I prove it? The story was that Elijah went to serve in the Civil War, under-age, as a drummer. Elijah's two older brothers who fought in the Civil War both served in Virginia (the family was all from Sussex County, New Jersey). Can I assume that Elijah also served in Virginia? How do I find him if he died on the battlefield? Someone suggested that he might have come home and died before the Census of 1870... Does anyone have access to the Census of 1865, Sussex County, NJ? Would appreciate any kind of help I can get... Kathleen [email protected]

Attempting to locate descendants of Joy Svoboda. Resided in Brazoria County, Texas in late 1930's to early 1940's. May have lived in Freeport. Joe Pessarra in Georgetown, Texas

We have been down this road before. U.S. troops sent to war half a world away. American foreign policy controlled by an arrogant elite, bent on projecting military power around the globe. A public misled into supporting an unconstitutional war founded on deceit and fabrications. As the death toll mounts, we hear claims that the war is nearly won, that victory is just around the corner. But victory never arrives. As the public loses confidence in the government, the government questions the patriotism of any who express doubt about the war. When a presidential election arrives, both the Democrat and Republican nominees embrace the policy of continued war. The military draft comes to dominate the lives of America's young, and vast numbers who believe the war to be a senseless blunder are faced with fighting a war they do not believe in, or facing exile or prison. The year was 1968. Because voters had no choice that November, the Vietnam War continued for another six years. Hundreds of thousands of Americans like you died, were maimed, or suffered from diseases like malaria. A far greater number of Vietnamese died. Today, the war is in the quicksands and alleys of Iraq. Once again, under the pressure of a determined resistance, we see an American war policy being slowly torn apart at the seams, while the candidates urge us to "stay the course" in this tragic misadventure. Today's Presidential candidates are not Nixon and Humphrey, they are now Bush and Kerry. Once again, there is one overriding truth: If war is the only choice in this election, then war we will have. Today enlistments in the Reserves and National Guard are declining. The Pentagon is quietly recruiting new members to fill local draft boards, as the machinery for drafting a new generation of young Americans is being quietly put into place. Young Americans need to know that a train is coming, and it could run over their generation in the same way that the Vietnam War devastated the lives of those who came of age in the sixties. I am running for President, and have been against this war from the beginning. We must not waste lives in order to control and waste more oil. Stand with us and we may yet salvage your future and Americas' future from this looming disaster. Sincerely, Ralph Nader HTTP://WWW.VOTENADER.ORG -- after the Maoists intensified their program of violence, 408 people were killed - nearly an elevenfold increase in the number of deaths over the previous year. Ever since, the death toll has been on the rise. By late 2000 the death toll has risen to over 2,100. As of August 2002, nearly 5,000 lives have been lost to the insurgency " Shining Path sent congratulations to RIM for its first anniversary in May of 1985.

Note that I had to kludge this example ... the actual printed or RTF version is considerably cleaner. :-) 1.

In fact, pretty much any program should do this "descendancy" format. Doug
