FootNote
The new kid on the block, FootNote is known for digitizing historical
documents... many of which are genealogical gems. With naturalizations,
city directories, war records, newspapers, town records, etc... this new
kid is quickly being recognized as an alternative to Ancestry.
While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
Inclusion of names in
this Pennsylvania World War II Casualty List has
been determined solely by the residence of
next of kin at the time of notification of the
last wartime casualty status. This listing
does not necessarily represent the State of
birth, legal residence, or official State
credit according to service enlistment.
Casualties listed represent only those on
active duty in the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps,
and Coast Guard, resulting directly from enemy
action or from operational activities against
the enemy in war zones from December 7, 1941,
to the end of the war. Casualties in the
United States area or as a result of disease,
homicide or suicide in any location is not
included.
This is a state summary taken from casualty
lists released by the Navy Department,
corrected as to the most recent casualty
status and recorded residence of next of kin.
Personnel listed as MISSING are under
continuous investigation by the Navy
Department, and therefore will be officially
presumed or determined dead. Some will be
found alive. The last official notice to next
of kin will take precedence over this list.
