The last two records for the Savitt family I was able to find are the World War II Draft Registration Cards for David and Morris Savitt . These cards are from the “Old Men’s Draft” described in a previous post . These are the Draft Registration Cards for the Fourth Registration conducted in 1942 and include men born between 28 APR 1877 and 16 FEB 1897.
David Savitt’s World War II Draft Registration Card
Click on the link for a PDF copy of the WW2 Draft Card for David Savitt – 1942. The record states that:
- David Savitt’s Serial Number was U192
- He lived at 5807 Hazel Ave., Phila., Pa. and his mailing address was the same
- His telephone number was She. 0689
- He was 46 years old and was born on Mar. 4, 1896 in Russia
- A person who would always know his address was Mr. Frank Meingort, 5807 Hazel Ave., Phila., Pa.
- His employer was Mayfair Leather Co., 1308 Vine St., Phila., Pa
Morris Savitt’s World War II Draft Registration Card
Click on the link for a PDF copy of the WW2 Draft Card for Marris Savitt – 1942. The record states that:
- Morris Savitt’s Serial Number was U1176
- He lived at 5961 Belmar Ter., Phila., Penna . and his mailing address was the same
- His telephone number was Sar. 7149
- He was 46 years old and was born on Sept. 28 1896 in Sumk, Russia
- A person who would always know his address was Sarah Savitt, 5961 Belmar Ter.
- He was self-employed at his home address
Based on the birthdate of David, I assume this David is the brother or nephew of Joseph Savitt . Morris is the son of Joseph Savitt.
These cards also have information on the reverse, but the way the cards were digitized, I could not obtain the reverse side of the cards . When I’m in Salt Lake City next, I’ll copy the reverse sides of these cards.
