Jean-Francois BARBIER Aug 24, 2019 7:47 AM (in response to Elliot Schneider)Hello Elliot,
First thank you for your answer.
Joseph was my grandfather's cousin. In which document did you find this information?
The first census we have is the 1910 census on which my grandfather Michel lives with his father Pietro, his brother Raymond and his two half-brothers and one half-sister, in Hartford, Connecticut.
Best regards,
Jean-François

2 people found this helpfulDear Mr. Barbier,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
Since he served in the military at various times, we suggest that you request a copy of his Official Military Personnel File (OMPF). OMPFs and individual medical reports for those who served in the U.S. Armed Forces and who were separated from the service prior to 1955 are in the custody of NARA's National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis. In many cases where Army personnel records were destroyed in the 1973 fire, proof of service can be provided from other records such as morning reports, payrolls, and military orders, and a certificate of military service will be issued. Please complete a GSA Standard Form 180 and mail it to NARA's National Personnel Records Center, (Military Personnel Records), 1 Archives Drive, St. Louis, MO 63138-1002.
His service with the Department of State and possibly, the National Park Service, should be recorded in his Official Personnel File (OPF). OPFs for individuals who worked for the U.S. government in a civilian capacity prior to 1952 are in the custody of the National Archives at St. Louis, P.O. Box 38757, St. Louis, MO 63138. Please include the full name used during Federal employment, date of birth, Social Security Number (if applicable), name and location of employing Federal agency, beginning and ending dates of Federal Service. For more information, the web site is https://www.archives.gov/st-louis/archival-programs/civilian-personnel-archival/index.html.
For pension file information, we suggest that you contact the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) via the VA toll free number: 1-800-827-1000.
We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
