A quick note before I crash - fighting off "something" that has had me down about a week. Check out the below website from the VA government site. Has a massive list of burials for soldiers who are buried in military cemeteries. I found about 10 or so of our Gorin's - gives their rank and branch of service, birth and death dates, cemetery, location in the cemetery, a link to that cemetery. Not just VA soldiers - all of them. http://gravelocator.cem.va.gov/j2ee/servlet/NGL_v1 A sweet gal in McLean Co IL has been working with me tonight after finding my Gorin website. She filled in a ton of blanks for me on the descendants of Sanford Pell Gorin who moved to Washington, Tazewell, IL - he was a brother of John Darns Gorin of my daughters' line. She sent a lot of obituaries too and eventually I'll get them posted. I have just updated my Gorin gedcom on World Connect (URL is in my signature line) with the new information too. A belated Happy New Year and best wishes for the coming year! Sandi' Col. Sandi Gorin - Publishing: http://ggpublishing.tripod.com/ GORIN worldconnect website: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/~sgorin
