  1. My grandfather, Elmer Warren Ferris, served in WWI in the navy. He was a signalman on a battle ship (name I can’t remember. I’ll try and get it for you.) He enlisted late in the war (and young – had to get his father to sign for him!), so he lucked out and missed some of the worst of the war. While in Barbados, he contracted either measles or mumps and was put off the ship for awhile. I have a picture of him if want one.
