Have a grandfather who fought in the Civil War? Norman Camp is looking for you
Norman Camp is wondering if anyone in the Northwest is like him.
No, not just 81-years-old - Camp is searching for others who had a grandfather who fought in the Civil War.
"There can't be many of us," Camp said.
Casmp's grandfather, Alexander Campbell Camp, was born in 1836 and fought for the North as a sergeant with the 18th Indiana volunteers. He was a blacksmith by trade.
Camp's father, Don Hall Camp, was born in 1880 and worked as a station master and telegrapher.
Hall was born in 1933 and after years as a mechanic, went back to school and became an electrical technician for Tacoma City Light.
"I'm more curious than anything," Hall said. "I've been doing a little research and began to wonder how many people have similar stories. I'd like to talk to them."
It's a simple request, and if you or someone you know fits the description, you can reach Hall at (253) 380-8643
