Okay...I just listed your previous messages and found the draft card that was sent to you.

It says that he was employed by the Detroit Conference (that would be of the Methodist Episcopal Church) and that he was a "natural born citizen" (born in Jackson, Michigan). Jackson is in the lower portion of the state about two hours west of Detroit.

It also says that his home address was McMillain, Michigan. It identifies the county of registration as Luce.

The correct spelling is "McMillan." Luce county is on the "U.P." or the "upper penisula" of Michigan. McMillan is in the southern portion of the county on State Route 28.

Instead of me looking up the material, let me suggest that you go to the UMC Commission on Archives and History website: http://www.gcah.org/Conference/umcdirectory.htm
There you can find the contact info for the Detroit Conference archives and they will be able to help you alot more.
