Friends: please do not overlook the on line telephone books. I have made several successful contacts using it, finding that many families "stay put" for decades! Recently, I found a relative by marriage to the person I was hunting, using the on line phone book, about two weeks ago it was; yesterday I got a packet of info on this missing person and PICTURES, too. She had an obit of my person's spouse and dates of birth of their children from a family Bible, as well as a notation of where my relative died with a span of 5 years as "gestimate" of death date. What a treasure. MaisieAnn@aol.com Hudson, OH
