Website for those researching the Civilian Conservation Corps. You can locate the camps anywhere in USA. Also information on how to get CCC service papers. http://www.cccalumni.org/ Here is an interesting article about daily life in the CCC: http://web.ulib.csuohio.edu/ccc/camp.html Hope these help someone. My father-in-law served in the CCC near Lisbon Ohio. We still have some pictures of his days in the camp. There is also a book available with information called "The Tree Army". It is available on the CCC website store.

Is there some way to tell if they were really a part of this CCC? I noticed on that webpage that there was a camp at Elyria. My mother- in-law also had pictures of the waterfall there and had mentioned visiting the bear cages. I always thought it odd that they would even know about those things, since they lived in Cleveland. Now I'm wondering if maybe he hadn't been stationed at the camp there in Elyria and thus became familiar with the surroundings? Sandy
