Well, unfortunately, I did some checking this morning and found that our local library knows of the FHL system but not equipped to handle microfilm reading. The county historical society can do it but have very limited hours of operation and more unfortunate for me, located in a city 1/2 hour from me. I'm unable to do it during my lunch hour so, as much as I really need that information, it's just gonna have to wait. I hear patience is a virtue! : - ) THANK YOU!
