Norval is listed in the WWI draft index - will look at his image. Sorry, Norval's image came up black. However, the images before and after his are those of his brothers, John Henry, and Walter.

Norval also registered for the draft for WW II. U.S. World War II Draft Registration Cards, 1942 about Norval Smedley Kirkner Name: Norval Smedley Kirkner Birth Date: 20 Mar 1892 Residence: Chester, Pennsylvania Birth: Chester, Pennsylvania Roll: WW2_2240627 Note regarding the images for the states of PA, MD, VT, and DE. These four states were scanned at the National Archives facility in such a way that the back of one person's draft card appears on the same image as the front of the next individual. The result is that when you click to view the original image, you will see the correct front side of the draft card, but the back of the previous soldier's card. Ancestry is aware of this problem, and is working quickly to correct this issue WWII image is attached - remember, the pg 2 show at the bottom is not his; only page 1 at the top -----Original Message----- From: Gail Steckel [mailto:gail@gregsteckel.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2006 7:34 PM To: 'Nancy Finch'; 'PACHESTE@rootsweb.com' Subject: RE: [PACHESTE] Norval Kirkner Norval's middle name is Smedley.
