  Notes	Notes for THOMAS GREGORY BABCOCK: It is likely that Thomas served in World War I in France. He says he was gassed during the war and it left him with "purple lips". I have a copy of the letter sent to him by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Treasury Department -- Military and Naval Payments, returning his discharge papers to him. He apparently submitted them for a claim for $100 (reason unknown). Look for him in Charlestown, Massachusetts. He may have worked for the Boston Police Department. Here is some information I received from Julie Daughhetee (Thomas Babcock's granddaughter): My grandfather (Thomas Babcock) for some reason did not believe in banks, he was robbed many times. When he died the police found him with hundreds of dollars stuffed in his pockets. My grandmother and he split up - although they never divorced (I don't know when) I remember the first time I met him, I was 11 (one of two times) and he said he was my grandfather, I told him my grandfather was dead (as that is what I had always been told) He took me to the circus in Boston.
