Brandie, Thank you, I have this information already. That is how I tracted him as far as I have. I have no birth date and no death date, or the county he died in, and by calling the Township Trustee, I keep getting a recording that they will reopen at 10 a.m. on Thursday. I have gotten this recording for a week. This is Reynolds Township, there in Montcalm County, and I am assuming he has a simple veterans marker. He astranged himself from family, as he 'liked to go on a bender' and he didn't want to be around people when he did. I am assuming he saw a lot of horror in the entire war, and he never married. I am looking to find a death certificate. Thanks, Marty
