Walter J. son age 17 clerk, department store, born IL

all children show father born IL mother born WI

WORLD WAR 1 DRAFT REGISTRATION
Thomas Edward KNOX
age 20
checker for U.S. government
Nearest relative: Anna Knox, 4342 N. Western Ave., Chicago

I found a family tree on ancestry.com that shows Edward Knox's parents as
Thomas Knox 1836-1892 and Margaret Powers 1841-1923
It says Edward was born Aug. 2, 1867 McHenry, IL died 1952 age 85 buried All Saints cemetery, De Plaines IL

It also says his wife Anna Butler was born 1867 died 1927, buried same place as Edward
It shows their marriage as Dec. 22, 1895 Plano IL

You would have to check sources for those dates and places.

If I get some more time I will see if I can find Edward and Anna in earlier census years.

We know that Anna should be a Butler as her mother Mary Butler was living with them in 1900 so that seems right.

Carolyn L.
