Whitcraft 2 obits aw

      George Eli Whitcraft's younger brother, John Hayes Whitcraft (1877-1950), predeceased G.E. As the obituary indicates, John Hayes Whitcraft enlisted in the Spanish-American War (April-August 1898).* He served with Kansas infantry, Regiment 22, Company D, as shown here. In my earlier article regarding M.R. Cornelius, I was unclear as to what the Cornelius family meant to the Whitcraft family. This obituary clarifies that point as sister Addie married into the Cornelius family.** 

*I would credit the newspaper from which this obituary came, but do not know the newspaper. 

**As promised, I am uploading photos of the scrapbook. Please see the posts in the "latest blog" column. Right column on the Passed Time home page..3/4 of the way down or so.
