Rebecca, Great find and very interesting! I loved the part where it asked his occupation and he said, "cowboy." And at the time he joined, he was living in New Mexico. It was also interesting how he was described with a dark complexion, blue eyes, and light brown hair. He must have been a striking young man! It also says he had his training in San Antonio, Texas and was issued a pension for his service in 1921. It looks like he died after 1930. What adventures he must have had! He may be the grandson of Christopher & Marie/Maria Pace - born in Tennessee (census 1880, Bentonville, Arkansas). But there are other possibilities too.
