Hi Bud, I live in Orlando Fl. And I would be more than happy to do what I could. Unfourtunatly I'm not sure what that could be. Orlando is a VERY big place. Have you thought about placing an add in the local newspaper here? The local newspaper is online http://www.orlandosentinel.com/index.htm along with radio stations ect. Here is a very popular website that can connect you to most of our places: http://www.insidecentralflorida.com/ I can tell you that Florida is VERY strict on child support and "maybe" your son could use that to his advantage by insisting on his right to see his children since Florida is "insisting" on his child support. The local agency who handles that would be called: Child Support Enforcment Agency, maybe see if you can find a phone# for them. The area code here is 407 I did call the local information operator and they did not find a phone# for a linda or lisa Caudle Hope this helps some, Sherry At 10:23 PM 10/27/99 EDT, you wrote: >This is not the type of letter that should be posted to a mailing list, but >it does have to do with family and genealogy.
