I’m not going to hide it, I’m blatantly trying to get some of our family members interested in visiting this blog. I doubt that any of them will find it tiresome though, because this is their family and I am sharing documentation and history with them.
Visitors, as usual, please click on the image until you get it full-sized.

Jim’s home town of Clinton, Iowa has a very nice display of war memorials for the most recent wars: Civil War, WWI, WWII, Korean and Vietnam. The Civil War era memorial is for William B. Mayes who enlisted in DeWitt, Iowa and was born in Ohio. He was a Medal of Honor Recipient and was in Company K, 11th Iowa Infantry. He was at the Battle of Kenesaw Mountain, Georgia. His memorial stone is also in this group of photos.
