Many thanks to all the listers with their suggestions as I look for obits on my relatives, Houston Avery & his wife. Just for the record, I've used the Trails portion of THOR in the past and have found other relatives before, including my grandparents. Coming from Massachusetts however, I am limited in a means of doing the research in FL. You all had some good suggestions and I'll do what I can to follow up on them. I wonder since the deaths didn't happen so far ago, does Ruskin have it's own city hall where vital records may be reviewed or will I still have to go to the county for this? Thanks again, Don Avery
