This is great! Thank you. Any information that I might be able to trace is helpful. I'm not sure of the details regarding my grandfather except, that he served in the Army during WWI with the 339th Service Battalion and was discharged in 1919. I'm told he was also part Cherokee. He and my grandmother were never married but they did have several children together.
I'm told he is buried in downtown Charleston, in what was once a cemetery but is now buried underneath the Pepsi Co. off of Meeting St. Rd. My grandmother
is buried across the street in the portion that still remains a cemetery with other family members.
I will share this info with my father and see if he can recall anything else. My email address is
