Someone very kindly looked up the Army's record of his burial in France. His family requested that his body be brought home for burial in the U. S. His parents refused an offer to have him buried in a National (military) Cemetery. No death certificate was provided in the (20 pages) of Army documents - my guess is that any Army death certificate would say burial in an Army cemetery in France. I have also been searching for an obituary - either in 1918 when he died, or in 1920 when he was reburied. I agree with you that he may be in one of the cemeteries I have checked, but the record may be incomplete/incorrect. I appreciate your input - and any other suggestions you or anyone else may have.
