I just found his WWI draft record on here and it lists him as living in Los Angeles as a miner and as single. I did not have a wife listed for him in my tree, so thank you for that information. I probably never would have looked in Iowa for a burial record for him either, I normally use www.findagrave.com to look up cemetery records, then if I can't find anything there I look at IA genweb. It also appears that he was illiterate as well as his name is printed at the top of the form as Clifton Peet Seeman in sloppy block letters and the rest of the form was filled out by someone else in cursive. Thank you for the information. Melissa Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
