I will have that film processed in the next couple of days, and if the photos show the inscriptions, I will e-mail them to you as jpeg files. Are you able to open and view jpeg files, or would you prefer me to transcribe the inscription into an e-mail message? In the meantime, I will check my files to see what other Wainscott info I have. I am sure there are many others on the KYOWEN-L mailing list with Wainscott connections that can help, also. Jim Mason (mailto:cousin@jett-mason.com) Owensboro, KY
