This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

Truman Library, KC Chiefs and Royals, etc.) I'm not even sure where Independence, KS is, although I've heard of it. The Kansas City area falls between KS and MO (I live 1/2 mile from the state line, in KS), so I could see your confusion. I'm sure the family center would be happy to help you, although you have to go there to look up info- maybe there is one in the VA area. Have you also tried the Family Search website, sponsored by the LDS? Good luck, Patty
