Is there a Military or National Cemetery in Ft. Myers, Fl? It is believed that I have two cousins buried in a Military Cemetery around Ft. Myers, Floyd and Clyde Gussio. They were born sometime between 1900 and 1920 in Arkansas. Can someone send me a address, telephone# or some other way I could get in touch with this cemetery to see if this is where they are? Thanks in advance Paula J. Riggs

Norita, I so appreciate your wilingness to also help me out. Right now we are trying to figure out what to do next with this research on Robert B SMITH. I am waiting for the death certificate from the Dept of Vital Statics and may get back to you with a request. Thanks again and also to dear Dawn on this list as she found and sent the obit on Robert!!! Great work and help. Joni Smith Everett, Wa NASJS@webtv.net

Hi Norita, I guess it's me, you and Rideth here in Sunny (and rainy) Florida. Fort Myers that is. Seems that late nights have become my specialty on the internet since my husband works for the power co and spends what seems like 20 out of 24 hours a day at work during the summer. Everytime he lays down to rest they call him to work again. Anyway, bring on your needs Lee County researchers and we'll try to help. I've also contacted the genealogy assoc. here and asked for help. Unfortunately the data bases have only been in the works for about 5 years and consist of the compilation from volunteers only. They said they will help as much as they can. Dawn
