Need help reading a place name

Legg inn av Doug Corbin » 22 okt 2006 15:45:05

Can anyone read the place of birth on this WWI draft registration?

I see all kinds of possibilities but nothing makes sense:

Sweet Mater Tenn
Sevesh Frater Tenn

Boy, do I feel dumb. That should have been an obvious reading. I think that
Sweetwater is the place. It's even in Monroe Co, TN which is where I was
hoping he was born.

Hey, some places have weird names. I have to admit that if I hadn't

recently spent a lot of time reading some _really_ bad handwriting I
wouldn't have thought Sweetwater.

Good luck to you.
