What a bitter-sweet story about Ralph's
learning about his daughter from conception
to birth in one second! His daughter must
cherish knowing how happy he was!

QUESTION: How did you figure out that our
Uncles enlisted two years apart? (I still
don't know when my Uncle enlisted??? I just mailed
off a request for his records (and a copy
of any ID Photo if possible)a couple of
days ago. I haven't a clue as to how long
I'll have to wait for them. It might be a big
delay because I think I was supposed to include
a payment)

My grandparents homestead burned down many years ago...1945, Beaconia/Balsam Bay area. My grandfather (Edwards father) and I believe my grannies father, died together in that fire. Two of their houses burnt to the ground, then another fire years later destroyed my Grannies little house, destroying many important things.

I have this vague recollection of a WHITE CROSS, cloth? Paper? Gold lettering? Gold something? that was given to my grandmother regards Uncle Eddie. My memry really is not clear.

So my Uncles name...never came up? :-)

Take care...C
