Hello Jim and Ellie. Here is some information I have on a Jay Co Orcutt family...I don't see Donald, but maybe this will help some how..?? This is taken from a GEDCOM file that was donated to me. It is not my own work, so you may need to verify the info as I can't vouvh for it. May I suggest that you post your query on the Jay County Query Board as well. It runs from GENCONNECT..so anyone searching Genconnect for the Orcutt name anywhere in the US will find your query. Good luck!
