Any help would be appreciated. It might be worth looking up police reports and newspaper articles from the area that you think he was murdered in. That would give some details about the murder (if he was actually murdered or died in suspicious circumstances). Most places keep records of that sort of thing. Can't help on how you'd go about it though. -- James Kemp see Alexander at http://www.ajkemp.org/gallery/ or my games at http://www.full-moon.info/
