Hello, I am new to your list.

I'm hoping someone here can help with this situation......

I have found an ancestor, John GATHLENY died while in the US Army in
1918 "the army hospital"  at "Camp Wordsworth" South Carolina,(according
to cemetery records)  exact date unknown but his body was shipped to
Barrancas National Cemetery in Pensacola FL and buried on 18 Oct 1918.

I have searched the SC pages, done a search on altavista, and used
mapquest, and I cannot find this "Camp Wordsworth". I am in need of
finding it's location to obtain a death certificate.

Would anyone have any knowledge of this army base, and/or where I would
write to get a death cert? I'm not sure if deaths on military bases
would be different, and also we're not really sure if he was really
killed overseas  or did in fact die in South Carolina. 

Any help will be much appreciated.
