Yes, there was a big fire that destroyed several thousand military records I believe it happened after my husband got out of service if I remember right. But my husband's records weren't in that bunch.
John Wade Viles was b Jan 1856 Morgan County, Indiana d 27 Apr 1929 Monroe County, Indiana m Nellie Hill 20 Jun 1895 20 Jun 1895 Monroe County, Indiana
They had
Gayle Viles b 5 Nov 1897 Monroe County, Indiana
Carl Viles b 1898 Monroe County, Indiana
Ralph Delmar Viles b 21 May 1901 Monroe County, Indiana d 18 Feb 1992 San Bernardino County, California
John Wade Viles b 26 Jul 1904 Monroe County, Indiana d 11 Sep 1979 Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana
Ruth Viles b 23 May 1912 Monroe County, Indiana
There is some confusion over if Nellie is a Hill or a Watts. I think she is a Hill.
On the California death index for Ralph his mother maiden name is given as Hill. I got into the marriage records in Monroe Co., Indiana and birth records, I found that Nellie is listed as a Watts and a Hill.
The marriage records gives her name as Nellie Watts, the Indiana births gives her name as Nellie Hill. What I think happened is thatNellie Hill was raised by a Watts.
Monroe County, Indiana Marriage Records Book 9, Page 018 and Application Book 9 page 005 lists John Viles son of John/Edde Wally married Nellie Watts daughter of Edward & Jennie Watts on June 20, 1895.

Like I said Nellie is listed both as a Watts and a Hill, I think her mother remarried to a Watts and I think Nellie's father is Anthony Hill mother name Lucy Jane (Jennie)

Voyles parents are Moses Voyles and Ruth Hannah Townsend, Moses Voyles is the son of William Voyles and Hannah Rhodecia Bundy, William is the son of Jacob Voyles from Wales.
