1917 Draft Birth Registrations, Mineral Co, Colo BIRTH INFORMATION: RESIDENTS OF THIS COUNTY IN 1917-18 AND PERSONS WITH LINKS TO THIS COUNTY The information below was abstracted from by Raymond H. Banks from civilian registration cards completed in 1917-1918. All rights reserved. Some men do not have birth locations listed because they registered on the final draft registration day in 1918 when this information was not recorded. Almost 24 million men registered for the draft -- not always in the county of residence. CAUTION: Middle Eastern and East European national boundaries and country names were quite different than those seen on today's maps. Microfilm copies of the original cards are maintained by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Days Saints (LDS...the Mormons). Researchers can probably order loaner copies of specific reels from Salt Lake City through requests at local LDS family history centers. Payment for mailing costs is required. Catalog subject heading: UNITED STATES -- MILITARY RECORDS -- WORLD WAR I [although these records are not actually military records]. Original cards are kept at the National Archives branch near Atlanta, Georgia. The compiler has not abstracted the registrant's address the name and address of next of kin, occupation, work address, general physical description and occasionally listed general description of a disability. Please consult the original card to verify all information. 1ST COLUMN: NAME 2ND COLUMN: BIRTH DATE 3RD COLUMN: ETHNIC GROUP 4TH COLUMN: BIRTH LOCATION OR OTHER INFO (spelling unreliable) OTHER COLUMNS: LOCATION OF REGISTRATION Ahacevik, Louis 22 Nov 1883 W relative lives Leadville CO Mineral CO Akin, Earl Hubbard 26 Sep 1877 W Mineral CO Akin, Guy Devearux 14 Jul 1888 W Del Norte CO Mineral CO Allen, Howard Clinton 13 Sep 1879 W Mineral CO Alspaugh, Norman 29 Oct 1882 W Mineral CO Anderson, Edwin William 25 Feb 1898 W works Wagon Wheel Gap CO Alamosa CO Anheier, Carl Mayland 1 Feb 1894 W Creed CO La Plata CO Baca, Lazaro 1900 W relative lives Santa Fe NM Mineral CO Ball, Oscar James 31 Jul 1887 W Zimmerman NC Mineral CO Barela, Joe Eduwiges 8 Oct 1875 W rel. lives Monte Vista CO Mineral CO Barnhart, Eldred T. 7 Nov 1888 W Lancaster Ontario Mineral CO Bassett, Oliver 9 Mar 1886 W Mineral CO Bassett, William Harlan 7 Aug 1877 W Mineral CO Battin, Oscar William 27 Aug 1881 W Mineral CO Beagle, Louis Bengman 17 Jan 1873 W Mineral CO Benselin, Victor Eugene 7 Jan 1898 W Mineral CO Bessey, William Francis 19 Jun 1874 W Mineral CO Birdsey, Frederick Reed 28 Jun 1880 W Mineral CO Blades, Clyde Bearl 12 Oct 1893 W Del Norte CO Mineral CO Blades, Oscar Marion 22 Sep 1890 W Del Norte CO Mineral CO Blake, Homer Grafton 1888 W Manitou CO Mineral CO Blatnik, Rudolph 12 Apr 1886 W rel. lives Pueblo CO Mineral CO Boyle, George Louis 24 Aug 1892 W Creede CO Gilpin CO Branch, Robert Calvin 26 Dec 1894 W Durango CO Mineral CO Breeding, Ben G. 13 Jun 1895 W Creede CO Culberson TX Brooks, Robert 29 Oct 1891 W Hughes Springs TX Mineral CO Brown, Ed 27 May 1895 W Newhope CA Mineral CO Bruns, Lewis Elliot 6 Oct 1880 W Mineral CO Carlson, Hildebrand 7 Mar 1876 W rel. lives Sil Wermlo Sweden Mineral CO Cathcart, Charles James 8 Sep 1873 W Mineral CO Cathcart, Hugh David 24 Jul 1897 W Sunnyside TX Mineral CO Cathcast, Charles James 8 Sep 1873 W Mineral CO Cathcast, Hugh David 24 Jul 1897 W Sunnyside TX Mineral CO Chapman, Carl Joseph 24 Dec 1884 W Mineral CO Clark, Duncan E. 27 Nov 1887 W Brillion WI Mineral CO Clarke, Robert 10 Jul 1877 W citizen of New Zealand Mineral CO Cohn, Phillip Henry 14 Sep 1872 W Mineral CO Collins, Melvin James 12 Aug 1897 W Creede CO Mineral CO Collins, Shreve Beck 5 Sep 1878 W Mineral CO Comstock, Monroe Jackson 30 Dec 1881 W Mineral CO Cordova, Adolfo 24 Feb 1900 W Mineral CO Corsan, Norman George 29 Dec 1881 W Mineral CO Corson, Norman George 29 Dec 1881 W Mineral CO Cotton, Almont Burton 1 Oct 1886 W Wamego KS Mineral CO Craig, Arthur Vernon 19 Oct 1893 W Creede CO Ouray CO Craig, Charles Delbert 6 Apr 1897 W Creede CO Ouray CO Craig, Charles Delbert 6 Apr 1897 W his dad b.
