This site is the Greatest!!!! You have all been so helpful. I knew this area was full of nice people. I visited Hillsboro for about 1 hour a couple of years ago to see where my grandmother was born. I wish I would have spent more time. I will have to come back soon. I am on lists from several locations in other states but you all take these requests to heart. I appreciate it very much. So here's a big THANK YOU!!! Elmer Thorn Missouri
