you are right Nancy - the Draft Registr does show Civil A. Barber as nearest relative, and on James Riley Lee and Mittie Holt's marriage license it shows his parents as Joe Lee and Mary Lee (did not use her maiden name). I have doubts that the Registr card is for our JRL as he signed it on Sep 12, 1918 and I think he died between last census he was on (1910, as 34 yrs old) and 1918 when hiw widow, Mittie, remarried Apr 1, 1918. A curious thing to be sure. Possible I s'pose they could have divorced but my mother-in-law always said her daddy, JRL, died in a train accident when he was working with the railroad in Spencer NC. Just don't know. I will pursue finding (have already posted) hoping a Barber related to Civil will see and reply. Thanks! Cathy
