I recently sent my form in to the Vital Records, State of Mississippi. Apparently the people there are not interested in genealogy. I sent them the $10.00 money order, but since I did not have the exact year or month which my John Wool died they refused to help me. I guess what I am asking is, what is the life expectancy for a person born in 1878? I will . have to make a wild guess as the year he died and hope that some kind soul will help me there. What is making this so important is the fact, John's entire family vanished after 1910 in Desha Co. I just found John in the 1920 Mississippi census living in Bolivar County, Mound City,Miss. Does anyone have any ideas How I could get help from these people in Mississippi?Thank you very much for reading this and for any help you might be able to give me. Thanks Mary Ann
