Glen Morrow WW1 Draft Registration Card

This is Floyd Glen Morrow's WW1 Registration Card.  While all of you know your Grandpa Morrow as 'Glen', his real first name was Floyd, with lots of documentation to show that.  Why he chose to go by Glen instead of Floyd I do not know.  He was born at Dows, Iowa, which is in Hardin County, Iowa, just off of I-35 in central Iowa.  At this time he was living in Wilken County, which is in northwest Minnesota by Breckenridge.  I was not aware of him living there before this.  He was farming there, and was 21 years old, on June 5th, 1917 when the card was filled out.
