My ancestors were Polish Catholics who attended St. Anthony of Padua Church in Calumet. I have not been able to locate the places of burial for members of the WOJKIEWICZ family. The man at Lakeview Cemetery outside Calumet did not find them on his database. Would anyone know of another cemetery where Catholics might have been buried from about 1888 to about 1910? Thank you.

Thank you, John, for your very helpful email. Mimi in Vermont ----- Original Message ----- From: John P. DuLong To: MIHOUGHT-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2002 8:15 PM Subject: RE: [MIHOUGHT] FOIA Records Assistance By now it is clear to all of us that this is a scam. You do not have to pay a single penny to learn about using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). I have used it to great effectiveness in our struggle to protect the Burton Historical Collection. To learn about the FOIA, just point your browser to http://www.ag.state.mi.us/foia_and_open_meetings/foia.htm for specific information about the Michigan FOIA. A search of the Internet will reveal many other helpful sites with suggestions about using the FOIA. Be warned that the FOIA is not the wonder the scammer presents it as. Certainly, you could use it to ask for genealogical information. However, the agency has the right to bill a reasonable amount for searching for the document and processing it. In other words, if you ask for all the probate records for a particular person using the FOIA, then you will probably end up paying the same amount, if not much more, as if you were to just apply for these papers in the normal way. I could seeing using the FOIA in the situation where a county clerk is sitting on documents and will not share them. The FOIA has a built in schedule in which the clerk would have to reply. Nevertheless, in 99 percent of the cases, using the FOIA would be killing flies with a shotgun. Please understand that the FOIA is a very important law for citizen to use when they have to force a government agency to be open, transparent, and accountable. However, it should not be abused for simple genealogical requests. Good luck in your research. JP John P.
