_www.411.com_ (http://www.411.com) is a good way to locate people. I found two Garth Loosli's in SLC. I wonder if these folks are now deceased...can you find the on Family Tree and maybe a relative who actually put a contact? Michele In a message dated 5/26/2013 5:57:55 A.M.

My ward in Brazil was created 50 years ago. As part of the celebrations (which includes an addition to our meetinghouse), we would like to identify former branch presidents: Gerold L. Walker 01/out/54 01/jan/55 Arnold E. Webb 01/jan/55 01/jun/55 L. Dale Braithwaite 01/jun/55 01/nov/55 Douglas Paul Reid 01/nov/55 01/mai/56 James R. Palmer 01/mai/56 01/dez/56 Garth C. Loosli 01/dez/56 24/abr/57 I believe they were missionaries at the time, and each one served for a short period as a Branch President of the Porto Alegre Brazil Ward, as indicated. In 1957, the second branch was created, and we have had local members serve as presidents since then. You will also notice that I mentioned the ward being created 50 years ago, but the first president I have in the list above was called in 1954. So, it is also important to find these missionaries because that may help identify who the first presidents were. I have also checked the Church Directory of Leaders for extra information, but the above is all I have got. Thank you so much already for your support. -- Jorge Todeschini /zhorzhy todeskeeny/ Family History Consultant First Counsellor in the Bishopric Porto Alegre Brazil First Ward Please send the one word message SUBSCRIBE or UNSUBSCRIBE to LDS-WARD-CONSULTANT-L-REQUEST@ROOTSWEB.COM ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to LDS-WARD-CONSULTANT-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Talked with HIS nephew at church literally. He is 2nd counselor in my ward bishopric. He will give me Garth's contact info to forward to Jorge as soon as he find it. He said he never knew uncle Garth served mission, much less in Brazil.
