There is someone looking for the same people on ancestry.com, is that you?

[Beckey]

Hi doggydetailer1,

Yes got it, but other than Illinois not where, assume Chicago.

John Scott snr. had to register in 1941, living Fox Lane, Lake, Illinois and person who will know his address was down as, George T. Wait, 1739 Devon Ave. Chicago,  I assume that was his son George.
