Charles Dunn is not found on the WWI draft registration. If he was born in 1865, he would have been too old to be required to register for the draft.

Hi You might try WWl Draft Registration cards at Ancestry.com. Your Dunn had to register and you will find out where he was. Try Oregon first then his previous residence. Most public libraries subscribe to Ancestry.com. I live in Canada and have access through my city library. If you don't have access I can check for you but it would be in a week's time.

I have a family that moved from Oklahoma to Oregon in 1917. Charles Dallas (Dal) Dunn (b.1865 IN) and his wife Ella Byrd Nalsh Brown (b 1876 KS) were shown on the 1910 census in Comanche County, OK. They moved to Portland OR in 1917 where he worked for the railroad. He died in 4-1925 as a result of being hit by a car. My dilemma is where were they on the 1920 census? Everything points to they should be in OR but I have been unable to find any of them there. They had ten children, some born in IN, some in KS, some in OK, and the last in 1918 in OR. I don't know if Charles was in the army in 1920 or not (his obit did not mention it). Even if he was in the Army, shouldn't she be shown on the 1920 census (she died in 1936). I don't know if she remarried after he died or not. Any suggestions on how I might find them on the 1920 census will be appreciated. This may be one of those things that I have looked so long and so hard I just can't see what is right in front of my face.

SHARP A few hours after he jubilantly announced "this is my lucky day!" William W.

Sharp’s death crash was witnessed by Joseph Osborne, a truck driver for the Feather River Civilian Conservation Corps camp. Osborne was following the insurance man’s car and was the first man to reach him. He was joined in a few minutes by State Highway Patrolmen, Thomas Taylor and Taylor Wahl.

That some times happens with some subscriptions, we have done that before and it worked, but never with Yahoo. No I did not try it simply because Yahoo is always just Yahoo. It might be Yahoo doing this some how. Maybe trying a different address might solve it. If a person likes web mail like Yahoo, one might try gmail or their own ISP address.

The other possibility is that the address subscribed may be slightly different from the deliverable address, like an added space at the end. I would manually unsub and resub the address to see if that fixes it, but you may have already tried that.

Then it must be something in the user's email client. {perhaps "in-line" attachments or spam filtering?) Gyropping their own origination into a folder somewhere? I suggest a unique string of characters be sent through the list and after a period they search their hard drive for that string. That may reveal where the inbound is at, if it is being redirected.
