Subject: [Clinton Co IN] Fwd: Robert M Mann of Clinton Co area killed WWII -Maybe from Mulberry
Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2006 06:17:45 -0800 (PST)
I got a message from a gentleman who photographs
graves in the American Cemetery in the Philippines.
The men buried or memorialized there are American
soldiers who lost their lives in the Pacific during
WWII. He has found seven Clinton County soldiers:
John W. Bennett
Wilbur Edward Cuppy
Clark Everett Frazier
John C. Grice
James B. Heise
Robert M. Mann
Robert W. Norris
George G. Taylor
He is searching in particular for relatives of Robert
M. Mann, who is thought to have come from the Mulberry
area (though he has connections to Dayton in
Tippecanoe County also).
Please contact him if you have any connection to these
servicemen or pass the message along if you know
someone who has or might have a connection.
Thanks!
