Hello all, looking for a little help.
My great grandfathers 2 brothers were Canadians living in the States when they were drafted for the WWI. I have their draft registration paper. So, where do I go find where they went or what happened to them? I know where to go for Canadian soldiers but I need US Gov. sites where their names are. My mom said her grandfather mentioned one of this brothers was lost when he went to war. With the info thats available now, Im sure I can find what happened to them. Another question, if the men were deemed fit, were all of them sent to war ? The eldest brother was 43 on his draft papers. Thanks for your help.
