Hi, MK: Since your email came through the Ancestry gateway, we just want to make sure that you have seen our web page at http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilclint2/ . I didn't see anything specific about your Claude John James. There were 2 queries on the James name, I think, almost 4.5 years ago. Here they are, it's supposed to be surnames but I can see where you must have a real problem searching for this surname. If you think they are indeed asking to correspond with other surname James researchers, you could try to email them - the emails can't do anything worse than bounce because the people changed their addresses since then. Surnames: COOPER JAMES Submitter: Victor O'Connell ([email protected]) Date: 26 Aug 1998 Surnames: PELSRING HELENA JAMES MOCK Submitter: Kathleen Sallis ([email protected]) Date: 16 Oct 1998 I see 3 James' families in the 1880 census, but not John Peter. There are none in the 1900 census so they probably already moved to St. Louis. I hope to look at microfilm next week at the FHC, and I'll see what the birth certificate, if it's there, says.
