    in WW1 Draft Reg

Narrative

from researcher Bonnie Davenport -
"He was born in Russell County, VA and left home at a very early age saying he'd not be heard from again..... He wasn't until maybe a year or so ago when I finally found his family who knew nothing of his past."

Home in 1900: Barkers Ridge, Wyoming, West Virginia (as Floyd, born Aug 1879, cannot read or write)

Note: Belvin Floyd Davenport of Terre Haute born 3 years before, but I do not see any other person in preceding census'. Must be a story why he added 3 years to his age - avoiding WW1 Draft?
