1 --- Hugh W. McKee was born 6 February 1890 in Lane Prairie,
Johnson County, Texas and died 23 January 1961 in Joshua, Johnson County,
Texas. He is buried at
Lane Prairie Cemetery, Johnson County, Texas.
I was told that Hugh was gassed in the
Battle for the Argonne Forrest during World War 1 and that he was never
able to work after the war. It was said that it effected his mind.
His grave marker has him as a F3 in the US Navy in World War I. He may
have been serving with the Marines as a Navy Corpman? F3 indicates
that he was a Fireman 3rd Class, which are not normally assigned to the
Marines.
