How it is shown: Displayed as the crop of the front of the card; the registrar's report on the other side (which carries a medical answer) is not shown.

Keep in mind: What the page says: signed 'Nat E. Ligon'; birth date 1 Sept 1888 and birthplace Gloster, Miss.; occupation 'Corporation Lawyer'; employer Mid-Co Petroleum Co., Tulsa. These are statements, Confirmed as stated; no particular case or client is documented. Whether this is our person: Confirmed that the draft card and the 1920 passport application are the same man (same birth date and place). The step from 'Emmons' in the 1900 household to 'Nat E.' is Likely, not proved; the registry tags Emmons Nathaniel 'E. Nat' Ligon (1888-1922).
