John Willrett Close to Ancestral Home in 1919

From the March 13, 2019, DeKalb County, Illinois MidWeek  "Looking Back."

1919, 100 Years Ago.

"John Willrett, son of Gotlieb Willrett is now within 100 miles of his grandfather's home in Germany.

"Only an uncle and an aunt reside there now.  Willrett  who has been in service a year last September is with the 33rd Division, in the headquarters corps."

I'm guessing his ancestral home is somewhere in Germany.
