Harley Elijah Boss was born in Lamar County, Texas, the son of George Washington Boss and Nancy A Reynolds.

He died in World War I in France on Oct 1, 1918. He served in Co B, 345th M. G. Bn. He was originally buried in St. Mihiel American Cemetery, Thiaucourt, M-et-M, France Grave 194, Plot 4, Section 20, #1233 (per his Interment records).

He was re-interred in Arlington National Cemetery on June 30, 1921.

Although his gravestone says that his death date was Oct 2, 1918, his interment records have the 1st as the day of death.

Harley was married to Zoe Seague on Oct 5, 1911 in Lamar Co, Texas. I was told by an aunt that she thought that Harley had a child before he went into the service, but no one remembered for sure.
