  • Notes 
    • Name, info from Judy Carter. Per Judy her father was a
      career Marine. She says he used to say he was 14 when he
      ran away for the Boy's Home in Kansas City, MO and lied
      about his age to join the service. He retired in 1949 or
      1950 because we moved from San Diego to Princeton IN for
      sure in 1950.

      per Judy about his post military employment: "He went to
      work for International Harvestor in Evansville, IN for
      around five years. Got laid off, and in 1956 or 57 we moved
      to Chicage Heights, IL and he went to work for Youngstown
      Sheet & Tube Steel Mill in Indiana Harbor, IN (which was
      about a 25 mile drive for him from our house in IL). He was
      a Guead and retired from there about 1978 and died in Dyer,
      IN in 10/7/1980."
