Hello ~ I have links to Spanish American War; too numerous to post. I will be happy to send them privately. I have been searching for my grandfather, George David Pugh b 1880 d 1944; entered the Army from home state of Ohio, into the SA War. Except that I have a photo of him in uniform dated 1898-1899, I might wonder if he ever lived or died. LOL I cannot locate old George anywhere. (Note: Pugh surname changed to Prugh about 1904). If I can help, let me know. My brick walls are very thick, but I do have many URLs. Regards, Beck > Is there a specific site for Spanish American war information?

If I'm not mistaken,... there is a three? volume set published on service men of NY State from the War. I've seen it,... but don't recall the title. Maybe someone else on the list will know.

Can anyone help me? I've lost my Grt, Grt, Grt Grandfather. The only mention I find of him is his name, Aden Jacobs appearing in Warren's Regiment, N.Y. Militia in the War of 1812.

I will be traveling around the Southwest in my motor home for about a month so I will be "unsubscribing" in just a few minutes. I"ve been on the list since mid September and have learned a great deal about NYC. Westchester County and The military from those areas that I never knew before. Also it's been fun. The helpful spirit of all the veterans on the list is remarkable. No matter what the question, some one (or many) will respond with an answer or a hint ornhow the answer to the question might be found. And always in the most courteous tone.. Having lived in the area for many years before coming to California I was accustomed to ethnic humor that was not derogatory. I liked it and missed it. This gap has been filled for me since I joined the list. Hope to back in about a month. Thanks to all - and - by the way - Season's Greetings. Bill Murray Penn Valley

I am the granddaughter of Emile Victor L'hernault. He and his brothers fought in WWI. I am looking for information on Military records. I have contacted the Army and the Navy. They say that there aren't any records. Thank you for any suggestions.

You might want to try a websearch on *Camp* Wadsworth, Spartansburg, *South* Carolina too. In 1917 this was a huge training area. I haven't got the particulars with me, but at least the 27th Division went there for training. Also, if the 51st Pioneers was a pre-Sept/Oct designation, it might have changed when the Guard was 'nationalized'. To illustrate how things changed in 1917; My grandfather joined the 10th NYNG in 1917. At some point he was transferred to the 7th NYNG to fill their ranks before they went to Spartansburg. Once at Spartansburg, the 7th NYNG & a few other units were combined, nationalized & re-designated the 107th Inf of the 27th Div.. jim On Mon, 20 Dec 1999 16:40:23 -0500 (EST), tovert@webtv.net (Robert Mahoney) wrote: >First i would like to thank everyone for the help they gave me looking >for my uncles discharge papers .

After my 18 December posting on recording of my discharge papers with the Westchester County Records I decided to open the safety deposit box and refresh my memory. I found that the papers bore a stamp showing they had been recorded shortly after I was released from active duty in late 1945. Then I noticed they also had a stamp that they been recorded with the Santa Clara (California) County Records in March 1957. This shortly after I had relocated there after being released from active duty during the Korean War era. My discharge papers for the Korean War era also bore a stamp showing they had been recorded at the same time. The 1945 Westchester recording was in response to newspaper articles noting that the county was prepared to record the papers at no charge and that it was a good idea. Copies of the recording could be used for many purposes if the originals were lost. As far as I can remember, the March 1957 recording was to insure that copies were readily available locally if ever needed. Westchester County is a long way from California and getting copies by mail from there might take time when copies might be urgently required. Bill Murray Penn Valley, California

I am trying to find some background on my great-grandfather, William Thomas Charity who emigrated to Plattsburg from England somewhere around 1870. Family history has it that he served in the British Army, possibly the 58th Rutlandshire, and married an Irish woman Mary E. (surname unkown). Any information would be gratefully appreciated. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

The 51st Pioneer Infantry was attached to the 4th Corps which also included the 1st, 3rd and 4th Divisions. You might be able to find more information on the 51st in a unit history of one of the above mentioned Divisions.

My discharge papers were recorded in Westchester County. I was given a wallet size card on which was noted the record number and date of recording. At top center was a representation of the "Ruptured Duck" the pin given out when a person was discharged. Mine is still around some where. Similar cards might be in the effects of WWII veterans who have passed on. Bill Murray Penn Valley, California
