Bob, This is very nice work. Wish I had time to help. I found lots of my KINDLE family in Lewis County and Snohomish County. Slick technology on the Soundex converter and links.

Yes, the Every-Name Index of the 1910 U.S. Census of Washington State being produced by Washington State Genealogical Society volunteers is laid out by Soundex code. Please check out http://www.rootsweb.com/~wagenweb/1910/ This website has a Soundex converter. Below the converter are the click-on links to the Soundex files containing the indexed records. Please note that each link is titled with the Soundex Code and Given Name of the first person listed in that file. Example: For file entitled "B232WEST": The first record shown is for: B232 Bocktuzy, West, 54, bp IN, Whatcom Co., Kendall Precinct, ED 340, Page 88A, line 13. The last record shown is for: B260 Baker, Riley, 40, bp IN, Yakima Co., Upper Naches Precinct, ED 280, Page 122A, line 12. The next file is entitled "B260RITA": The first record shown is for: B260 Booker, Rita, 5, bp WA, Columbia Co., Dayton Ward 2 Precinct, ED 37, Page 32B, line 74. I hope you will give this index a try and volunteer to help index the remaining counties. Bob Witherspoon

The 1910 Washington census is not soundexed.

Thanks to all that sent me the information on Anna McIntyre in the 1910 Spokane census index. She is the one that I'm looking for along with her daughter Hilda. You wonderful people have save me days of checking the census pages one by one. Marie

Washington State Genealogical Society has been working on a project to provide an every-name index of the 1910 U.S. Census of Washington State. Indexes for most counties have been completed and available online through USGenWeb. A team from Eastern Washington Genealogical Society is working on the index for Spokane County. Volunteer are still needed to do many of the enumeration districts for King and Piece counties. To see which indexes are in work or have been completed, and for links to the completed indexes, please check the WSGS website at www.rootsweb.com/~wasgs Bob Witherspoon

Hello, I can search the 1910 census via Heritage Quest through my library. Would she have been living alone? I looked at Spokane County and I don't see an Anna as head of household. If you think she was married, any idea who she was married to? Thanks.

Try sending an email to the Spokane City Library. I think they would check the city directory for you. Their website is http://198.1.37.9/ You'll find a box for "contact us" where you can send a message. Good luck!

Marie 1910 Census - Spokane County - Hillyard - Diamond Avenue there is a Anna McIntyre - age 47, born Pennsylvania with daughter Hilda McIntyre - age 17 - born South Dakota This is on roll 1669, page 260 Hope this is the correct one! Fred Pflugrath Peshastin, WA

Does anyone know if there is an index for the 1910 Washington census? I am trying to find out if an Anna McIntyre was living in Spokane by then. I know that she was there in the 1920 and 1930 census. I also want to know if any of her children were also with her at that time. I have started going through the Spokane 1910 census page by page and it is taking me forever! Any help will be greatly appreciated. Marie in British Columbia

My apologies for how vague this is goin' to sound... Yesterday at the Suzzalo library on the campus of the UW I met Jean who is involved with http://obits.rootsweb.com which I knew nothing about.... So, he took the time to set me straight... <grin>.... we had to be hussed by the librarian... <sigh> The guy is terrific and had a briefcase full of look ups and stuff he was doin' for others... and he was rightfully proud that he has extracted nearly 41,000 names for Obituary Project. He is also doin' Forest Lawn Cem., Seattle for the USGenWeb Archives http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/wa/king/cemetery/ForestLawn.txt I'm hoping he contacts me.... or I run into him again... because next time I'll take notes and get his email...

Dear Gloria, How nice of you to keep trying to contact me. I really do appreciate your efforts; what fine folk genealogist, all, be:-) I am trying to reduce the spam that has frustrated us all so much for so long. It appears that I STILL have not gotten the handle on it and quite all my updated aol has to offer, and I thank you for your perseverance. We recently had info. re. Ensley shared with the family and were so happy to receive it. His ancestors were from the east and I am trying to firm up my DAR application, naming our common ancestor, JONATHAN MELVIN, with help from his LOCKWOOD lines. Jonathan's grandson Milan Morrell Melvin and also his sister Beulah Elizabeth (Melvin) Lockwood more or less came from NY together to OR. The Lockwoods went to Tacoma about 1880 and the Melvins remained in Oregon. Milan and Beulah's mother, Eliza (Wisner) Melvin Pitt apparently went with her daughter, Beulah Lockwood, and was living with a Lockwood m Llewllyn grandaughter at the time of her death. Folks on this list kindly directed me to her death certificate, which sadly, had no new information re. her ancestors, but did name her gravesite. So, my greatest thank you to the helpful, helpful folks on this list, I remain, duh, Phoebe in CA

I have sent this message twice directly to Phoebe in Calif. who was asking about the Llewellyns in Tacoma, but each time I get a message saying she isn't accepting mail with attachments or embedded images. Well, duh! How does she expect to get any help? Take a look at the Tacoma Library Obituary Index. There is an Ensley M. Llewellyn listed and you can order a copy of the obit. Tacoma Obituary Index http://www.tpl.lib.wa.us/v2/nwroom/Obit.htm Also in the Wash. State Death Index: Name: Ensley M Llewellyn Place of Death: Tacoma Date of Death: 19 Jul 1989 Residence: Pierce Age: 83 years Gender: M SSN: 536-09-5474 Certificate: 024429 The 1930 Pierce County census has Ensley M. Llewellyn, age 24, born in Washington, and his wife, Ruth E., age 22, born in Washington. He is an advertiser, own business. If you do a search on Google for Ensley M. Llewellyn, you will get a couple of hits that are interesting, but nothing about his family. You can also search this public records site. Click on Washington, Pierce County, then Pierce County Auditor/Recorder and do a search. There are 4 documents on Ensley Llewellyn, but Pierce County hasn't got up to snuff and posted that actual documents to look at. Looks like Ensley might have had 2 sons, though. http://www.netronline.com/public_records.htm Gloria Lester >>^. .^<<

FYI Eugene Melvin SW Portland, Oregon February 10, 2004 Pentagon announces creation of Korean Defense Service Medal By Vince Crawley Times staff writer After more than a year of behind-the-scenes work, the Pentagon announced Feb. 6 the creation of a medal honoring the hundreds of thousands of Americans who have served in South Korea since the Korean War ended. Congress ordered the creation of the Korean Defense Service Medal in the 2003 Defense Authorization Act, which President Bush signed into law Dec. 2, 2002. Until that legislation was enacted, the Pentagon's official position had been that a specific medal was unnecessary for post-armistice service in Korea. Most campaign medals are awarded for wartime service. The new medal is intended "to give special recognition for the sacrifices and contributions made by members of the U.S. armed forces who have served or are serving in the Republic of Korea," the Defense Department said in a prepared statement. The period of service to qualify for the medal begins July 28, 1954, and continues "to a future date to be determined by the secretary of defense," the statement said. To be eligible, service members must have been assigned, attached or mobilized to units operating in the area of eligibility for at least 30 consecutive or 60 nonconsecutive days. The area of eligibility is defined as "all land area of the Republic of Korea and the contiguous water out to 12 nautical miles, and all air spaces above the land and water areas." Those who don't meet the 30- or 60-day requirement still may be eligible, if they: Were "engaged in actual combat during an armed engagement, regardless of the time in the area of eligibility." Were "wounded or injured in the line of duty" and required "medical evacuation from the area of eligibility." Participated "as a regularly assigned air crewmember flying sorties into, out of, within, or over the area of eligibility in support of military operations." Each day that one or more sorties were flown counts toward the 30- or 60-day requirement. The medal may be awarded posthumously, but no more than once to any individual. The Defense Department said each service will write its own regulations for processing and awarding the new medal, to include procedures for veterans, retirees and next-of-kin to apply. Each year, more than 40,000 Americans serve in South Korea or its nearby waters. The Korean War cease-fire was agreed to in July 1953, but democratic South Korea technically remains in a state of war with communist North Korea. Tensions along the demilitarized zone, or DMZ, flared all through the Cold War and most recently intensified in 2002 when the North acknowledged it was developing nuclear weapons in violation of a 1994 disarmament agreement. According to congressional language accompanying the law, about 1,200 U.S. service members "have died as a direct result of service in Korea" since July 1953.

I am still looking for information on Harry Young, who was born Harry Choate. Would like a n obit or information on the name change. Info says he died in Aug. of 1924 or 25 Thank you, Marjorie Kinkade

There are City of Seattle directories beginning in the 1800s. The Seattle Public Library probably would check those years for you if you requested it by phone, mail or email.
