Hi Everyone, Just dug up some family skeletons on my grannies 4th hubby ADOLPHUS HENRY NEY. I went on a new site Footnote.com that is copying records from the Nat'l Archives. I input Adolphus' name & printed out 80+ pages from The Federal Bureau of Investigation on gold ole Adolphus. Fantastic info on him from this report. He was a famous chemist & that I knew but did not know he was a German Alien Enemy No. 4095 during WW1. He came to the US first in 1903 & lived in Buffalo, then went to England & returned in 1910. I found on Ancestry a city directory for Scarsdale for 1918-1919 for him on POST ROAD. He was arrested & sent to Ft. Oglethorpe prison in GA 3/14/1919, and paroled in Dec 1919. He was then in jail 5/15/1920 in Scranton, PA for embezzlement & issuing threats that he was going to blow-up the Sepoy Color Co. plant where he worked. Does anyone have any info on this person??? He did not marry my grannie until 1928 or so. Thanks, Suzi Motley Wilmington, NC
