I know my mom had some of his letters while in CCC's they were post-marked Washington, seems like WallaWalla comes to mind,...... Jeane Fuller Dalrymple angela jones wrote: great idea! i have often heard different members of my family speak of their ration books during WWII. never even thought to connect any with the idea of using them for genealogy. I have to check to see if they still have any of theirs. Does anyone know about how to pursue getting records from the three C's [civilian conservation corp] that existed prior to WWII in the 1930's? my dad was a member and while i know he worked in California and Wisconsin, i don't know the camp names or the unit numbers, Thanks for any help that comes my way, A.Jones Many would be scantily clad if dressed in their own humility.
