Free Search through 4/28/00 @ Ancestry.com for WWI Soldiers http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/inddbs/4520.htm Description: Among the bloodiest and largest armed conflicts in the modern age, World War One, although primarily a European war, involved United States military units from 1917 to 1918. This database is a massive collection of military records for men who served in the war from Ohio. Originally compiled in 1926, it provides the names for men who served in the army, navy, and marines. In addition to providing the individual's name, it reveals city of residence, unit of service, birth date or age, and other helpful facts. It also contains the location and date of enlistment and discharge information. The names of over 263,000 men are included in the collection. For researchers of Ohio ancestors who may have served in the "Great War," this can be an informative database.

To all you German Friends out there: I enjoy receiving and checking the e-mail about the Stroup family. Keep hoping for some clue about Bernard Stroup from Blair Co. PA born in 1800. I do notice that in the older census records that income is listed and it is interesting and somewhat informative about where they were socially and the kind of life they had. Just a thought.

I just filled out my 200 census. I received the short version. It only asked my name, age, date of birth, how many lived in my household, and if I owned my house and what race I was. That is all.

Good work Jim. I believe these children are the sons of Johan Philip and Barbara Straub. Philip and Barbara had a daughter, Catharina Elisabeth b. 3-1-1761 who was baptised in 1761 at the Lehigh Lutheran Church in Lower Macungie Twp, Lehigh County. Philip is taxed in Brunswick Twp, Schuylkill County, Pa in 1778. He is not on the tax list for 1779. He may have moved to Mifflin County at this time. Mifflin County is on the west side of Union and Snyder Counties.

Go to YAHOO.com and ask for MAPS. You can even get streets anywhere if you type in the addresses. Also, if you are traveling you just type in the street where you live and then the street where you are going and it works it out for you. Ginger in AZ

I hate to appear dumb, but as you can see I don't know if there is any connection between Mifflin County and Union County! Are they even close to each other?

Dear Shirley Morton, I am really interested in the Straub Church you talk about. My GG grandfather, Bernard Stroup is buried in Martinsburg ( not the far from Dansville). I have been unable to find which Straub line he comes from. I would love to hear more about your findings. Marlene Knott Shirley Morton wrote: > Hi Garry, Yes I did get to go to the Straub Church.
