Hi Jeremy, I would like to *use* your post to lead those who are researching Marin County surnames to a service provided for Marin County Genealogical Society members. This feature was begun last year and is slowly gaining interest. This link: http://www.maringensoc.org/ancestorsindex.html takes you to our Marin County Researcher's Ancestor Exchange where names of any members researching a given surname in Marin county can find each other, whether they live in Marin our not! A link to the Researcher's Exchange is available on the Marin GenWeb page as well as on our Society website: www.maringensoc.org At the moment, if you click on "Roa-Say" in the Researcher's Exchange Table, you will see we have no one listed as researching SAIS. Therefore, Jeremy has a dual opportunity to join the Society and put his name on a register that will let him receive contacts from others as they come along and in so doing, he will also begin receiving our wonderful quarterly KinTracer Magazine which focuses articles on the lives of Marinites. Soon, MCGS will be putting up an index of KT articles over the years which we will make available for a small copy cost. I suspect something on SAIS will surface :) in what has been written over the last 26 years....

One of his daughters, Maria Genevieve WEST, married 11/26/1864 Jesus Maria SAIS/SAIZ in Petaluma. Is anyone researching SAIS in Marin?
