I apologize if I am not posting to the correct listserve but can list master please remove this email from the listserve?? Thank you, Lisa Musick hxbuff@iinet.com

Hi Bill (and List) you are correct, there is no Nampa in California, but there is Napa (the wine-country) California. Nampa is in Idaho. I live in CA. and have ex-in-laws in Nampa! : ) (but just to be 100% positive there wasnt another Nampa in CA. I called my post office, and I was right, theres not. Cris Atwater CA.

I used anywho.com and found these two possibilities: Rice, Alex 2051 Westwood Ct LANCASTER, CA 93536 661-948-7297 Stuart, Jack 2321 Sunnyridge Rd NAMPA, ID 83686 208-466-4870 Hope this helps. Joan in Illinois

Hello Xavier: One and only one entry for Alex RICE was found in an online phonebook for the state of California. It is as follows... Rice, Alex 2051 Westwood Ct, Lancaster, CA 93536-7233 (661) 948-7297 I could not find the daughter, Jackie Stuart, listed, although there are a number of entries for Stuart in NAPA (not Nampa)California. I called that telephone number and it is no longer working; it has been disconnected. This was probably a fairly recent change, since he is still listed in the phone directory. If this is the son of a woman born in 1897, he could be quite old and might have moved into a home for older persons; he could possibly also be deceased. If he has moved, the mail would be forwarded to his current address. If he has died, the mail will likely go to his descendants who are taking care of his affairs and they may be able to help you further. Good luck with your search. Bill in Denver
