Warplaque on it, but he would have been almost 40, and the story goes that he changed his name because he was too young to enlist. Did he fight inboth wars? Fink was his mother's maiden name. His widow asked Ray Fink to change his name back to Welcomer, which he did in 1969
-------------------------------
Joseph Whitcome of the right age in Ogle county Illinois in the 1880 census very close to a Jacob Fink who is working on a farm. Says that Jacob is 24 but he would only be 18 at the time.
