I was wondering if you'd like to write this lady and give her some help on Hesse sites? I received a letter from Woodford Co. about my search for Letters of Intent and/or Naturalization papers. They said I needed to send some money for the search and then they'd send the papers. I ordered two -- don't know if I have 2 or 1 or maybe just none!! I should know something by the end of next week and will send you a note with whatever I learn. I looked once before for Andrew, in Peoria Co., and they said it wasn't there. I wanted to write to Woodford Co., to see if there was one for my gggrandfather so since Andrew lived in Minonk for a while, I stuck in the name Andrew Lyding. Guess we'll know soon. 4 weeks has gone by since I talked with the LA courthouse about wills and still nothing! I can't believe it takes this long for a search and copy of a Will. I hope I haven't waited only to learn she didn't have one!! Maybe we'll get some answers soon. Bev ____________ On Oct 17, 2006, at 4:13 PM, Ann Brown wrote: > Hello, > > I am new to this list.

I'm really sorry. I think I sent this letter to the list rather than my friend who has done quite a bit of work in Hesse. I'll try again. : - {{ ____________ On Oct 17, 2006, at 4:45 PM, Beverly Webster wrote: > I was wondering if you'd like to write this lady and give her some > help on Hesse sites? > > I received a letter from Woodford Co. about my search for Letters of > Intent and/or Naturalization papers.
