This is a new project involving an interesting source of genealogical information for the 1940's. Included in this batch is Arvid Griffen. Griffen started as prop man with MGM. He spent much of his career with the studio, next moving up to the production department as an assistant director. Later is his career, Griffen was named executive producer of "Doctor Zhivago," in charge of business matters for the 1965 romantic epic. Here are surnames of the new items: BASILE BRADY BUCHOLZ BURCKHARDT CALHOON DIWALD DUSAPIN FUREY GALLO GRIFFEN HAFER HAWTHORNE HILL HOPKINS LAYDEN LINDSEY MACCALLUM MAIRE MALABRE MARTIN MASSEY PULLIAM STEINES STEVENS STOOKEY SULLIVAN TOVEY TRUEB WALLS WALTON WRIGHT YOUNG To view the images, visit this page and search for your surnames: Index of War Ration Books (Updated) http://genealogytoday.com/guide/war-ration-books.html A bit of comic relief was offerred by Josephine Basile, who took it upon herself to freshen her lipstick and plant a lovely kiss upon her ration book. She repeated this activity with her next book as well. This database is updated weekly and now contains over 450 listings. If you have some of these books that you would like to share, please feel free to email me for instructions for uploading and/or mailing the information.
