Jonathan Saunders Posted 4 October , 2005 Share Posted 4 October , 2005 This is a shot in the dark in case anyone has access to this book? I dont suppose it gives a roll call on the men that came to Europe with the Division? I am looking for a chap named MOWER who I believe may have served with this Division. Probably would have been listed as "Ernest F." but possibly as "Frank". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Burns Posted 4 October , 2005 Share Posted 4 October , 2005 Don't have Cooke, but I do have Americans All by Reilly. No rolls, not even an honor roll which makes this one of the more frustrating division histories to work with, although it's a good read. Do you know what unit he served with in the 42nd?

Jonathan Saunders Posted 5 October , 2005 Author Share Posted 5 October , 2005 Neil, Thanks for your reply. I dont know for certain that he did serve with 42nd. All I know for certain is the only time he returned to Europe was with the AEF in 1917. However I was told that as he was living in Conneticut that there was a good chance he would be a Rainbow soldier. Thats why I was hoping Cooke may have included a roll of sorts in his book ... you just never know ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Burns Posted 5 October , 2005 Share Posted 5 October , 2005 Hi Jonathan, As a Connecticut soldier he may have been in the 26th Yankee Division (New England National Guard). There is an online partial listing of CT servicemen, I will check it for you. Take care, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
