But, the nara.gov site supplies a form front and back that can be downloaded and retrieved with Adobe. They won't give inquiries on the internet for privacy reasons which I figured they wouldn't Many years ago, I contacted a military department on the mysterious death of my uncle aboard ship and I was given a returned letter that described the fire. Now, Ifeel they were not just shining me off and it really happened. So much for military records in the first part of the century. . I hope this helps those who have military inquiries. BTW Would Merchant Marines be considered a part of the Dept of Defense or Dept of Transportation? My uncle was a Merchant Marine around 1936 and they claimed he died at sea. It was mysterious way to die and he was an expert swimmer. My other uncle went down to Wash DC and never got any satisfaction on his brother's death. I wish I had interviewed him before he passed away. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack without a magnet.....Doris

    2. Hi,you can obtain military records from NARA,for 7 dollars.You can go to thier website and fill out the info for an application. www.nara.org It takes a few weeks but its worth it.I am not sure but think this is only if they fought in a war?Someone else on the list might know if that is or isnt so,or the website should tell you.That's the website mentioned below.Good Luck!

    3. Hi Marilyn, Ok Start by getting a death certificate. That may have the parents names and more on it. Also if you know the name of the funeral home that took care of the burial they will have some information that may be helpful. Do you know his social security number or do you have something that had his military serial number on it. If you don't know either, go the Social Security Death Index and look up him name. It will give you the SS #. Also for $11 you can get a copy of the original application for the SS card and that will tell where he lived at the time he got his card and maybe who he was working for. You will need one or the other of the numbers to get a military record. There is a site on the computer that tells you where to send, but I cannot find it off hand. So if you cannot find it, and you are where you can, call a local Marine recruiter and ask him where the national records center is for the Marines. He can find out if he don't know first hand. They are used to getting crazy calls not pertaining to "joining up". Also if by chance there is not a marker on you father-in-laws grave the Government (VA) will furnish a flat brass one FREE. That you would taken care of through the Veterans Administration (VA). Now if you have any idea where they lived in 1900, 1910 or 1920 look at the census reports for the appropriate years in the place they were. It sounds complicated in a way, but it really isn't. It is a big job and takes patience. I have looked for a connection between 1870 and 1860 for two years. I am getting close to finding the connection though and am going to German this summer to meet the other end of the family where the roots started. Needless to say I am thrilled to death. I skipped a few years but found out they wrote a book in 1939 and have had reunions to update it every couple of years. Then I finally got hold of someone who knew about the reunions and the people who operate them. Bingo. I got an invitation. Good luck.

Parke > Hi Marilyn, Everyone starts somewhere!! Don't hesitate to ask questions. If you are really new, you need to start with yourself. List your birthdate, place, and then do the same for your parents, and then your grandparents. Keep in mind, you have two parents, four grandparents, eight great grandparents, etc. The number continues to double!! If you know the birth place, list it by name as well as the county and the state. AND don't use a two-digit number for the years. ALWAYS always use the four numbers -- '87 could mean 1887 or 1987. See what I mean? Some Libraries will have genealogical material you can check. Census records were taken from 1790 and every 10 years after that. years 1790, 1800, 1810, 1820, 1830 and 1840 only list the head of the household and the number of residents by gender in certain age groups. In 1850, every name census was taken, and the relation of the person to the head of the household. THIS is the one census that really gives people a boost because it gives names! The last census released to the public is the 1920 census. The 1930 will be released in 2002. Each census is held for 70 years and then it takes about 2 years for copies to be made and released to the public. If you have a Latter Day Saints Family History Library (the Mormon church) near you, they can order just any microfilm that you will ever want. You do not have to be a member to use their facilities, and the assistants I have been in touch with are most helpful. A FHL has access to hundreds of thousands of microfilm rolls which cover just about any sugject you could think of. When posting a query to any mailing list or county website, give the information you know. Such as your grandfather's name, date of birth, and any other pertinent information you have -- to say I am looking for Peter Parks in Illinois doesn't give a person much to go on. But if you say I am looking for Peter Parks, born 1807 in Vermont who then moved to New York, and Michigan before settling in Illinois will give a reader much more to compare with their records. I'll warn you now -- genealogy is addictive!! But it is so rewarding when you find another family member, or generation back. Just last week, I learned of my 4 great grandfather John PARKS' father, James. I was totally thrilled. There are records for birth, death, marriage, probate, land purchases, sometimes baptisim from church records, census records, cemetery records, tax records, military records all available to us. I may have given you more information than you wanted. But if you have any questions, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to help. I can't do the research for you, but I might be able to give you some hints. Hugs from Iowa Sandra

    3. Marilyn, I am no whiz at this either. Mainly what you do it try and figure out a place the family was located at a certain time. Like myself. We knew some birth dates of my great uncles and aunts and that all had been born in east Texas so I started with 1880 which showed most of the children and the first one had been born in MI. in what would have been 1868 according to her age. So I then went to MI 1870. Fortunately where I was looking had an index in book form. I located the name in the book which referenced the film # and the page and county. Then the people at the archive where I was pulled the reel for me and BINGO. Most indexes will be on film. This means looking for the county and then the names are usually in alphabetical order. Hope you know the county or otherwise it could be a long time looking. But once you find someone it is such a good feeling it is worth it. Just like myself when you find a child born in another state or even the parent you can go back to that. My Parks line moved across the south. I have been working mostly on the Graff and Schliemann name but just recently found info in a small old note pad which had been my grandmothers. As a result I have the date of death and place of burial for my dad's father and his grandmother. I would never have known otherwise. I also ended up with dates of birth for all his brothers and sisters. Glad I finally went through all of dads old papers really good. When you find something on a film get a copy made then you have your documentation. Be sure to document everything, so there is no question about your info being authentic. Heresy can end up just being that, although it can lead you to the documentation. I wish you the best of luck.
