U.S. Draft Cards 1917-1918 - Completed
« on: Tuesday 04 September 12 18:54 BST (UK) »
Could someone please lookup the U.S WW1 Draft Registration Cards 1917 -1918 for three brothers born in Wales and whom I believe resided in Trenton, Oneida County, N.Y. Their names were:-
John Richard Pugh b1883; Bennet William Pugh b.1889; Humphrey William Pugh b1891.
Thank You
