Jimmy “Jim” Peters

Spread the love

Jimmy (Jim) Peters [4/8/1887]  Jimmie (Jim) was the oldest son of Sweed and Carrie Peters. They lived at Oak Bowery. His Draft registration card shows that he was born 4/8/1887.  He stated that he was born in Opelika, and he was living in Anniston at the time, and working at U.S. East Iron, and U.S. Construction and Pipe Company.  On the draft card, he stated that he had a wife and child.   It is known that he could not write, because his signature was a mark witnessed by someone at the draft agency.

This leads me to believe that I may be able to trace his where-a-bouts in the Anniston-Calhoun County area.
