Hi, Mona, I searched around on Ancestry through all their military stuff and couldn't find absolute confirmation that your George Jacobus served and died in WWI. However, what about sending for the death cert for the George Jacobus who died in 1917, while Lillian Jacobus was still pregnant? Do you know that Lillian was a Greiner?
