Hi Hugh, Thanks for the offer to do a look up, but it turns out that I won't need you to do so. A couple of other listers sent me URLs for two web sites where you can look up the postal codes for any address, and I have already used them. They are: http://www.canadapost.ca/CPC2/addrm/pclookup/pccivict.html for Canadian lookups, and http://www.refdesk.com/factpost.html for postal information in several countries, including U.S. and Canada. The U.S. Postal Service also maintains a zip-code lookup web site at: www.usps.gov/ncsc/ They all seem to be pretty easy to use, and can be very handy. I'm looking forward to seeing those lines that you have on my McAmmond family, and you are right, every little bit helps, even if it only confirms what one suspected. We have had several cool sunny days here in Seattle, but frosty at night. Today we are back to normal Seattle weather, raining and 40 degrees F. Thanks.

If you give me the exact address I can easily look it up. It was a discarded one from the Library but has everything except the very latest addresses. We'll be going to town Friday so will send those out lines on your family that I have. really not too much but sometimes anything helps. Its supposed to get up to 10 below Celcius today its nice and sunny so I'll see if I can start the tractor and bring up some firewood for next winter. Bye for now. Hugh >>
