Hi

I found this old list of Canadian Casualties online from the Calgary Herald Sept. 27, 1918 paper (link below) and there is a J. Smith, Mounted Rifles, of Balsam Bay who is listed as having been "wounded". I'm pretty sure this is my Grandpa Joe as we were the only Smith family in Balsam Bay and Beaconia area that I know of. I wish I had my Grandpa's records so I could verify, and, hopefully, one day I'll be flush emnough to order them, along with some other family soldiers records too

I don't recall ever hearing any "war stories" regards Grandpa Joe having served at all, and gotten wounded, although I discovered he DID serve via Archivianet's attestation records.

I wonder, do any of you MLU-ers recognize any of the Casualty's names in this list?
