Charles Lawrence ZIMKOSKI
1896 - 1966 (69 years)-
Name Charles Lawrence ZIMKOSKI Birth 2 Dec 1896 Benson, Swift County, Minnesota 
Gender Male Death 16 Oct 1966 Pierce County, Washington Burial New Tacoma Cemetery, Pierce County, Washington Notes - His birth date is shown as December 2, 1895, in enough places that we’ll have to assume that it is correct even though December of 1895 would have been pretty much impossible if his older brother was born at the end of March in 1895.
He registered for the draft in Abercrombie Twp, Richland County, North Dakota, on June 5, 1917. He was single and was a railroad relief agent for the Great Northern. He was tall and of medium build with blue eyes and light brown hair.
He served in the U.S. Army in World War I. He was inducted at Wahpeton on June 23, 1918; sent to Camp Dodge, Iowa; served in Company C, 313th Engineers, to discharge; overseas from Aug. 16, 1918, to June 6, 1919. Engagement: Defensive Sector: Center (Alsace). Discharged at Camp Dodge, Iowa, on June 16, 1919, as a Private.
In the 1930 census, he and Olga lived in Bremen Twp, Wells County, North Dakota. They had no children. He was an agent-superintendent at the railroad depot.
They were still in Bremen Twp in the 1940 census although he is mistakenly indexed as Kimkoski in Ancestry.com.
The Charles Lawrence Zimkoski who was born 2 Dec 1895 applied for a Social Security number in April of 1937.
Charles lived with Olga in Minot, North Dakota, between 1951 and 1960. He was an agent for the Great Northern.
