Hi Judith and Gloria Don't forget that LDS has filmed most of these parishes. You can rent them and browse through them yourself rather than wait for a reply from the archives. They are usually swamped. Also, if you find one relative, chances are that you will find more in the same parish. Happy Hunting!.
