I am a retired Hoosier from Madison County residing in the Philippines with my Filipino wife. We are seeking family and military information about servicemen from your county killed in the South Pacific during World War II.

Please visit our website to see the beautiful memorial located in Manila, Philippines. http://fizkid.tripod.com/ My wife and I visited the cemetery as visitors and left with a mission in our heart. We have been taking photographs of the graves of the Indiana servicemen buried here and have been uniting them (at no charge) with their family members in Indiana and across the United States. To receive the photo of your family member, neighbor or friend all you need is a working email address. We do not send them to regular mailing addresses due to the costs.

Geogriann was born in 1868 in Louisiana, married William in 1890 in perhaps Sevier Co, Arkansas. They had two children that I know of, Claude and another child that passed away as a child, I believe. This family lived in Oklahoma (Idabel, McCurtain Co.) as well, where William passed away in 1937. Georgiann was still in Idabel in 1942. She is not buried near her husband and I don't know where Claude went. They seemed to have just disappeared.

We are planning to have a HUGE reunion in 2006 to celebrate 50 years of reunions. The family would love to have all descendants of James POTTER & Margaret PARKER POTTER attend. James and Margaret had 11 children most of whom moved to the Pontotoc Co. MS area and then spread elsewhere. Their dtr Sarah/Sallie married Aran/Oran HICKS in Crawford Co., GA in the 1820's. I have much information on this family that I will gladly share with other researchers. The group attending the reunion has dwindled by natural causes to a small group mostly from two sons of William Thomas "Tom" POTTER and Alice WESCOTT POTTER. One son's family has their own reunion later in the summer, so the 2006 gathering may be the last in the series. Please contact us if you are related or think you are. Even if you can't make it to the reunion, we want to be contacted. ! I look forward to hearing from many more cousins.
