    3. I have borrowed a copy of this book from NEHGS library and can keep it for less than two weeks. I'd be glad to look up any names of interest - be sure to include given name as well as surnames -- there are many entries for some surnames. Entries often include names of wife and children of the deceased, and there are some instances where children were adopted and the name changed. For example, "Jerome Lewis, son of A. Melissa Lewis of Corinth, divorced, was ae abt 3 yrs Apr. 1857 when adopted by Isaac G. Ridley. Name changed to Herbert Leslie Ridley." If you know of alternate spellings of the surnames, please mention them. Apparently the compiler, Ruth Gray, had difficulty sometimes deciphering the scripts. Stewart Rowe
