Well, John, I would be absolutely no where with my family without you! Since I live in California, I don't have access to the newspapers and the few times that I have tried ordering newspapers through inter library loan, it has taken up to 3 months to get the paper and sometimes my obituary wasn't in that paper. I enjoy all your postings, whether they are my relatives or not, because I get an idea of what Kansas City was like in those times. I love the happenings and feature stories. If I had to pick just one thing though, it would be your postings of the deaths with obituaries on request. So if I'm forced to vote, I guess it would be: 1, 2, 3, 4/5 equal but not unimportant. Thanks so much for all you do!

Currently, I'm posting items that I feel could affect the greatest number of people. >From the list below, please tell me what postings interest you the most. List in "most interest to least interest" order. (Example: 3, 5, 1, 4, 2): 1. Listings of deaths (with obits available on request) in the Kansas City area. 2. Listing of 1800's deaths in the Kansas City area (no obits available). 3. Listings of births in the Kansas City area. 4. "Happenings" (one sentence news items about people and events) 5. Feature articles about events in the Kansas City area with surnames. If there are not many people interested in the material I'm posting, I'll probably go back to giving assistance to individuals in their search for family members. Please respond to the List and indicate where you're located. Also, let me know if you have an interest that's not listed above. (I'll assume that the people on the List who don't respond to this survey have no interest in anything I'm posting.)
