Notes: According to Frank Towe's Application for a military headstone he served in the 803rd Pioneer Infantry Regiment in WWI. (This seems strange to me because the 803rd was a White Regiment raised in New York City, and ). Frank married Ruth Neoma Lee on 20 Nov 1920 in Dauphin, Pennsylvania, USA. Ruth (daughter of John H Lee and Margaret A Howord, daughter of John H Lee and Margaret A Howard) was born on 28 May 1895 in Shippensburg, Cumberland, Pennsylvania, USA; died on 25 Dec 1961 in Harrisburg, Dauphin, Pennsylvania, USA; was buried in Penbrook, Dauphin, Pennsylvania, USA.
