I went on Ancestry and could not obtain this information unless I paid a fee to view the WWI draft registration card. What am I doing wrong? -----Original Message----- From: Connie <R.leaman@comcast.net> To: PALANCAS-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Sat, 12 Nov 2005 10:17:32 -0800 Subject: [PALANCAS] Lancaster county in World War I Ancestry now has free-to-everybody WWI draft registration cards on line.
