Hi Everyone, I have never known Margaret Deadwyler or Helen Gunnels to send a request to anyone. They handle the request themselves. I do know if there is any information that is request and they don't have it they will send it to the museum to see if they have anything. I have been in the Probate Office many days and they are trying to fill request. I don't know how this man got your request. Plus if he is doing this then Faye should know about it. It is not right that someone is copying her work and then selling it to others!! I will check with them tomorrow and see if they know anything about it.
