The Trib also published a little booklet each year with the best of the "Line". My parents always bought a copy. I got a poem from there, memorized it, and recited it for a special program we had at school. I received a crude home made blue ribbon which I still have in my memory box. The Tribune has always been part of my life. I keep saying we don't need it any more, but I just can't give it up. I credit that paper with my love for reading. Grace

Hello all, I have returned after a long spell and need some advice. I am trying to verify that a family of HINKS in Evanston is definately related to someone in the family. I tried for a death certificate and found to early .... 1896 Has anyone any ideas to help me link this family up. Toni in NZ

The Fred Schuldt obituary I found in the Chicago Tribune Historical Archive, but Margaret Esdale's does not appear online.

Thanks Dave, and others that have wrote off list. I have been waiting for someone to confirm that the Line O' Type or Two article was a running article. I will now contact the Tribune staff with a query. I think I have found this map! Or I should say the good people of the Newberry Library did. Yesterday I called the Newberry Library, a very enjoyable phone call and a return call about another map of 1878 by my great. A copy of this map is on it's way and today a source for the Chicago map might have been found along with other maps I did not know about. I have to tip my hat for the staff at Newberry. One phone call solved years of searching. Al David Buzzek wrote: > "A Line o' Type Or Two" was a long running column in > the Trib. Have you checked with the Tribune? > Dave

researchers, I'm also in search of an obit for ESDALE MARGARET N/S UNK 0023366 1939-08-17 COOK CHICAGO thanks & take care, Debbie

researchers, I need to know if there is an obit on the following man: SCHULDT FRED M/W UNK 0003920 1944-02-06 COOK CHICAGO thanks & take care, Debbie

Hi; If you don't mind shelling out $35.00 a year, you can subscribe to the Godfrey Library in CT (Hint; I get mine as a Xmas present). They provide several ways to access the Trib archives, obits and headlines, past and present. Cheers, Masugu

I also get my subscription to the Godfrey library as a Xmas gift. I love their old newspaper search engine. It is far better than Ancestrys, even though it is many of the same papers. You can also search current newspapers archives. Susan

"A Line o' Type Or Two" was a long running column in the Trib. Have you checked with the Tribune?

Hi Steve, Seems to me that only the 1900 Census reports that Oliver was born in Kentucky, and the rest [1910, 1920 & 1930] all state he was born in IL. The possible error might be that his mother was born in Sweden, and she maybe did not have good command of English. Birth certificates were not required in Illinois in 1900, and you might have better luck with church records [look for churches around where they lived in 1900, for which ever church they may have attended - Lutheran, Catholic, etc]. Your friend might also send for Oliver's application for his Social Security number. That might be the easiest and best proof available. Hope this helps, Sharon Buethner On 10 Jan 2007 at 20:58, STEVE TAMMY HARDY wrote: I'm helping a friend, her grandfather Oliver Pepper was born 24 Mar 1900 possibly in Chicago Illinois. Is there a vital records database that someone can look at to verify that he was born in Chicago, every Census he reports his birthplace as Kentucky, but the family says he was born in Chicago. The reason we don't look in Kentucky is we don't have a county in Kentucky, just Kentucky.

Masugu - Your email bounced and I wanted to acknowledge your help. Terrific info. There are a few on the list (Dupuis/Clibborn) that establish that they were still in Chicago in 1937 and that helps me figure out when/if they moved to other places. Also, there's some 'cousins' to check out- names that keep popping up, but I'm not sure of a connection. Thank you very much for looking it up for me. Susan
