I am searching for information on George F. Routzhan, son of Charles Routzhan. He was supposedly born in Morgantown, WV, ca. 1885-90, and was sent to Fort Ethan Allen in Vermont to train for World War I He was a WWI soldier. He met and fell in love with a 16 year old girl while he was in Vermont, and married her. Her name was Bessie Olive Bettis... Anyway, he went away to the front, and no one seems to know what happened to him. He was gassed, we belive. He left behind two sons, George F. Routzhan Jr., and Edward F. Routzhan. This is where the Vt. connection is... I don't think there is another Routzhan family in Vermont but from this one man. Anyone who has information, we would certainly like to know more
