Bio and Links
Bio Photo History buff with a large site on American history, with over 3500 webpages and including 41 books. I'm especially interested in the pioneer period (which can range from the 16th to the 20th centuries depending on the part of the country!), and more particularly but not exclusively in the earlier pioneering east of the Mississippi. With particular reference to Find-a-Grave, my main usefulness online is as an annotated HTML transcription of Cullum's Biographical Register of the Graduates of the U. S. Military Academy (at West Point): many of those graduates are buried on Find-a-Grave with little information, and I hope to help put a face on some of these men again.

In order to avoid spam, I'm not displaying my e-mail, but I'm easily reachable, and very often respond within the hour: you can find my e-mail on this page.

Eugene E. McClean
Bill,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I am in contact with the library at USMA. However:
1. I'm not aware on Mrs. McClean's diary. How can I get more info on that?
2. I'm unaware of the Travis trial. How can I get more info on that? I tried your link (bit.ly etc.) and could not get connected to anything.
Thanks again,
R. Cacioppe

Bill,
I am a USMA grad doing research on Eugene E. McClean. Do you have access to or know of any repositories of his correspondence?

I am cleaning up my online Find A Grave messages which I never look at. If you would like to manage this entry, please submit the request thru the formal email tranfer system. Your Find A Grave online msg to me has been deleted.

All fixed. As you can see from the interment card, much room for error, especially the 2-digit year fallacy. As much as the info has been transferred, it is surprising they didn't lose him entirely. Good working with you on this one.

Best regards,
Linda 47158925 and Milton Yuan

I have not heard from Linda yet, but hope to in the next few weeks. If I could, I would but am the wrong granddaughter.

Why not Ruth's kids? I know them and where they are and they are cousins of mine.

Ruth M. Johnson Martin
Aunt Ruth is as far as I know still alive and kicking. So I have shared with my Martin cousin the pages that we have discussed about this thing that I know nothing about because I am also Percy's granddaughter but not anyone contacted me about it. So I haven't got a clue and hope my Martin cousin does. Let's leave it for now until she contact me. Tks, Susan

RE: Ruth M. Johnson/Ada M. Dobbs
OK, I will contact my cousin Linda and she can contact my aunt Ruth as we do not talk much. So I will give Linda your information.
