MILITARY SERVICE: Military service verified by entry in military service card index for the Spanish-American War in the Delaware Public Archives, Dover, Delaware. The entry states that Frank M. Hurd, age 21, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania but born in Kent County, Delaware, joined the army on 10 May 1898 at Middletown, Delaware.

He was discharged on 30 September 1898 at Wilmington. The great similarity with the service record of Carl Hurd, and the age at induction, make it very likely that the two brothers enlisted together.
