I checked that out already, Herb, but, I'll try direct contact. Thanks! As I mentioned, I did some homework, *(newspaper obits, Pearl Harbor Casualty List website, and military, etc),* but, haven't come up with anything. He was listed as a civilian on the Pearl Harbor list, just no other identifying info - so, I'm not sure which branch of the family, if any, he may have been a part of.
