    3. Thank You Eternally for your reply! I have been trying to find THE FAMILY HISTORY SUITE by INFOBASES. I called APPLETON'S immediately and purchased a copy. This InfoBase is now out of print, at least that is what the places I have tried to find it in said. Let us know if anyone knows for sure I lost my phone number of INFOBASES. I discovered I have a whole lot of pioneer ancestors and have been told this is an invaluable resource.
