Hello fellow Listers... I'm asking if any of you have any record or information of Robert Freeman Pick - my second cousin. In the 1920 Census he was stationed at El Paso Military District, as Private in the Eighth United States Cavalry. Unfortunately I've been unable to locate his SSI number - only his Service Number. He was born in New York in 1897. We had no idea we had any US relatives... My grandmother's brother went to the US from the UK around 1885.

I've found some interesting web pages and would like to share them with you. http://www.hood.army.mil/1CD_2-8Cav/history.htm , http://www.vvm.com/~firstcav/FMG8thCav1919.htm , http://www.vvm.com/~firstcav/CTrp8thCav1919.htm , with the regard to the last two, I'm not sure whether the 'ikit' should be 'jkit'... http://analysis.ikit.org/gl/fe/CTrp8thCav1919.jpg and http://analysis.ikit.org/gl/fe/CTrp8thCavTeam1919.jpg The pages I printed off aren't very clear.

I live in Australia and would dearly love to know of my American cousins...

Hopefully - hopefully someone may come up with a little information....

Joan Willis
