2011/05/18 : WW1 drafts cards database, update from Linda Deppner
note from Linda Deppner:
Esidor Joseph Scarnier, age 36, b 12 Oct 1882, residence Virden IL, alien non-declarant, born in "Belgim," coal miner, nearest relative Lizzie Scarnier, Virden IL; reg date 12 Sep 1918 Macoupin Co IL. This card doesn't specify the birthplace, so that's probably why it wasn't included:
Gus Andrew Scarnier, age 33, b 18 Apr 1885, residence Worland, Bates Co MO, citizen by father's naturalization before registrant's majority, coal miner, nearest relative Lutie M. Scarnier, Worland; reg date 12 Sep 1918 Bates Co MO. 
I've been able to locate the birth records for both of them and their sister in Chatelineau, Hainaut, so I know that neither of these birthdates is correct.  But this is the way they stated it, so there it is.  They came to the U.S. in 1895, after first settling in Canada where my grandfather and another brother were born.
