Griest was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on August 20, 1884 to Joseph Pownall and Mabel Haines Griest, the second of four children. Griest joined the Bell Telephone Company in Eastern Pennsylvania in 1906 as a building inspector and would eventually be named general commercial manager in 1933. During World War I he served with the 406th Telegraph Battalion, starting as a Lieutenant and ultimately attaining the rank of Major. After spending approximately two months, from June - August 1917, in training at the Army Signal Corps camp in Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, Griest headed overseas and spent the majority of the war in France. A devout Quaker, he was one of a small number of the typically anti-war members of the Society of Friends to serve in the American Expeditionary Forces. He returned home in early April 1919 and spent the rest of his life living and working in and around Philadelphia with his wife Mary and their two children. He passed away on January 9, 1947 at the age of 62 and is buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia.","The United States formally entered the conflict now known as World War I nearly three years after fighting began in Europe, declaring war against Germany on April 6, 1917. Only a few short months later, in August 1917, the 406th Telegraph Battalion, Signal Corps became one of the first two telegraph battalions sent to France to join the fighting, later proudly referring to itself as \"The First Battalion\". Composed entirely of employees of the Bell Telephone Company in Eastern Pennsylvania, the 406th was part of the United States Army Signal Corps, the branch responsible for maintaining all military communications, or signals. Despite the men's lack of prior military experience, the Battalion was able to mobilize quickly, after only four months of military training, due to their existing communications experience and knowledge as Bell Telephone employees. The Battalion served primarily in France for the duration of the war, taking part in several major American offensives, such as the Second Battle of the Marne. A written history of the unit was published in 1921 titled  The First Battalion. The Story of the 406th Telegraph Battalion Signal Corps, U. S. Army , with Major Thomas H.

Griest was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on August 20, 1884 to Joseph Pownall and Mabel Haines Griest, the second of four children. Griest joined the Bell Telephone Company in Eastern Pennsylvania in 1906 as a building inspector and would eventually be named general commercial manager in 1933. During World War I he served with the 406th Telegraph Battalion, starting as a Lieutenant and ultimately attaining the rank of Major. After spending approximately two months, from June - August 1917, in training at the Army Signal Corps camp in Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, Griest headed overseas and spent the majority of the war in France. A devout Quaker, he was one of a small number of the typically anti-war members of the Society of Friends to serve in the American Expeditionary Forces. He returned home in early April 1919 and spent the rest of his life living and working in and around Philadelphia with his wife Mary and their two children. He passed away on January 9, 1947 at the age of 62 and is buried in Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia.","The United States formally entered the conflict now known as World War I nearly three years after fighting began in Europe, declaring war against Germany on April 6, 1917. Only a few short months later, in August 1917, the 406th Telegraph Battalion, Signal Corps became one of the first two telegraph battalions sent to France to join the fighting, later proudly referring to itself as \"The First Battalion\". Composed entirely of employees of the Bell Telephone Company in Eastern Pennsylvania, the 406th was part of the United States Army Signal Corps, the branch responsible for maintaining all military communications, or signals. Despite the men's lack of prior military experience, the Battalion was able to mobilize quickly, after only four months of military training, due to their existing communications experience and knowledge as Bell Telephone employees. The Battalion served primarily in France for the duration of the war, taking part in several major American offensives, such as the Second Battle of the Marne. A written history of the unit was published in 1921 titled  The First Battalion. The Story of the 406th Telegraph Battalion Signal Corps, U. S. Army , with Major Thomas H.

In Series 1 - Correspondence, original order was maintained at the file level, separated into correspondence between Glen E. Toalson and Ora Reynolds, Glen F. Toalson's World War II correspondence, and correspondence regarding Glen F. and Jessie's trip to Philippines. Items within each file were arranged chronologically if they were not already so.  Correspondence in which the date could not be found nor inferred were placed last within each file. In Series 2 - Family Subject Files and Ephemera, items were arranged by subject or material type. Files were arranged alphabetically by material type and then in chronological order. Original order was maintained at the file and item levels for the Family Subject files, which include the Family History files, arranged alphabetically, the Culver Summer School file, and the Riverside Military Academy file.

Toalson and Ora Reynolds Correspondence. Original order was maintained at the file level for the Gainsville Tornado newspapers, and items were placed in chronological order. Items in the Newsletter file were removed from the folder of correspondence about Glen F. and Jessie Toalson's return to Philippines for preservation and access purposes. Original order was largely not maintained for the Photograph files for preservation and access purposes. Photographs of Glen E. Toalson were removed from a folder about Glen E.'s time running a ferry route circa 1915. Photographs of Glen F. Toalson's military service were compiled from photographs in other listed files, including of Glen F. at the Culver Summer School, at Riverside Academy, during World War II, from the file containing Glen F.'s World War II ephemera, and one item/photograph was taken from Glen F.'s correspondence during World War II (Valentine's Day card and photo). Within this file, items were arranged chronologically. Original order was maintained at the file and item level for the photographs taken at Camp Carson, Colorado. Glen E. Toalson's 1915 photo journal and the unopened pack of Raleigh brand cigarettes were placed in their own containers for storage and preservation purposes.","Glen Edward Toalson was born on April 17, 1889, in McFall, Missouri to Millard Fillmore and Anna Reynolds Toalson.

Hook, who worked for the Library of Congress. They married on November 26, 1914 and worked in DC for five years. In April 1919, Glen E. and Grace moved back to Osceola, where he bought the St. Clair County Abstract Co. Their son, Glen Francis Toalson, was born in October of the same year.

Between 1933 and 1938, Glen F. completed high school and post-graduate studies at the Riverside Military Academy in Gainesville, GA. During his attendance, Glen F. assisted with search and rescue efforts following the 1936 Gainesville tornado. From 1939 to 1941, he attended Washington and Lee University in Lexington, VA, where he was a member of the Kappa Alpha fraternity.  Glen F. entered active military duty on July 6, 1941 and served with the US 130th Infantry, 33rd Division in Hawaii and Philippines until 1945.
