<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>This isn't an Oregon related question,
specifically, but thought someone might be able to help. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=4>I just located my grandfather's WWI
registration card. </FONT></FONT></DIV>
<UL>
<LI><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=4>Item line #4 (1) Are you a
natural born citizen (2) a naturalized citizen (3) an alien (4) or
have you declared your intention (specify which), and my grandfather
writes: <U>alien.</U></FONT></FONT></LI></UL>
<DIV><U><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT></U> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>However, </FONT></DIV>
<UL>
<LI><FONT face=Arial size=4>Item line #5 Where were you
born? My grandfather writes: <U>Bronson Kans USA
</U></FONT></LI></UL>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>And</FONT></DIV>
<UL>
<LI><FONT face=Arial size=4>Item line #6 If not a citizen, of what country are
you a citizen or subject? My grandfather writes: <U>Great Briton</U>
(sic)</FONT></LI></UL>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>My question, is there any particular reason that he
would write "alien"....and "citizen or subject of Great Briton" yet state
that he was born in Kansas?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>I do have another record that states his parent
were both born in Ohio.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=4>Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks!!!</FONT></DIV>
