Finding WWI Service Among Probate Files
While I was at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library in Springfield, Illinois, I requested the book With The Colors From Aurora 1917, 1918, 1919, as I knew there was a reference to a Ferdinand Henry Schwartz (obtained from an index). I quickly found the reference, but all it said was: “Pvt. U.S. Army.” Since there are a handful of Henry Schwartzes in Aurora during that time period, I wasn’t for sure if this was my great-granduncle or not, even though I know his middle name is Ferdinand (likely named after his grandfather). I made a note of it and moved on. Today, I was going

What’s On-Tap This Weekend?
On Saturday, November 21st, I will be attending my first Illinois State Genealogical Society board meeting as the official recording secretary. I am very excited to be serving on the board with many wonderful genealogists. Because we meeting in Springfield, it’s also the perfect opportunity to go down a day early and get some research done at the Illinois State Archives and the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library. I have a long to-do list, and am hoping to get most of it accomplished on Friday. I’m sure most of Sunday will be spent analyzing my new finds ;)
