Historically, hats have represented one's occupation, one's hobby, or one's passion. I wear the Family History Hat because I am passionate about genealogy.

Spotlighting History in the United States
https://dp.la/exhibitions/civilian-conservation-corps/nature-conservation-recreation
Enter the halls of historical events; was your ancestor a member of the CCC? Did all of the men return home when their job was done?
As I compared the names of those who were serving in Niceville, Okaloosa County, Florida with the surnames familiar to me (via my genealogical searches), I noticed that several local family names jived with the several names of men who were in the Civilian Conservation Corps!
I'm fortunate to live in Okaloosa County, Florida at a time when one individual in particular has gathered the information and posted it online. Check it out! http://boggyflorida.com/Niceville/CCC.html
Useful to me in locating historical information was the "Digital Public Library".
