Well, you know anything that Dickson's page you can have/use/mirror/or link to. What ever you want ... as to other things..??? I have to think... what can I do? other than be a cheerleader... and get in the way? I am good at both! I know! When in doubt go back to the basics! I will do lookups.. NOW remember I have been out of the loop for a very long time.. Heck my resources may even be on the web by now.. but this is my offer to ya'all on DC.. Send me an email with the word "lookup" in the subject, otherwise it might be deleted.. ..and I will look in a new resource I have acquired.. The Appomattox Paroles April 9-15, 1865 I will do one book at a time, as I had a milestone birthday this month...and now have official Senior moments~! Give me something to do! Cher
