Author: The_Cohens Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.michigan.counties.wayne/17902.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: You can probably find these people for free using online public records and telephone directory sites. I have located distant relatives this way. With common names such as these, I usually go to http://veromi.net, and study the free portion of the results (never clicking the costly "more information" buttons). I then use the information from veromi to narrow down my search at http://411.com Since you know where he passed away, then I suggest getting a copy of his death certificate which will tell you, hopefully, where he was born and the names of his parents, to help search the 1920 and 1930 census records for his siblings names. It also should give you the name and address of the informant, hopefully a relative. Your post does not make it clear who is who, sibling vs. children's names, so I cannot take a people search very far. But since some of his siblings and, for sure, children, are likely to be alive, you can try using living people search tools to help you locate them, rather than just wait for someone to notice your post here. I like using http://veromi.net and http://411.com but there are many such free sites that can help you. Also, try to get the obituaries on him, those may tell you where his children and siblings were in 1993. There are lots more places to check to see if you can track them down, including other family tree and directory sites. You may get more ideas and places to search from my beginner's genealogy resources page. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~thecohens/resources.html Also see my finding aids page for more searching ideas and people search sites. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~thecohens/findingaids.html Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

French-Canadian Heritage Society of Michigan List _______________________________________________ Hello Folks, Sorry to keep pestering you about the Library of Michigan, but as you know, the future of this institution is still in danger. I am sure many of you are tired with this topic, but we are making progress and need to keep pressing forward. I am sure many of you saw that Governor Granholm has revised her executive order and is now using language that implies that the Library of Michigan and its collections will stay intact. In other words, she blinked, and she blinked because of the pressure we citizens have placed on her and our legislators. But now is not time to rest on our oars. This is the time to make another push. This is going to sound odd, but it is time to write Governor Granholm and thank her for modifying her executive order and recognizing that the Library of Michigan and its collections must remain intact. Politicians appreciate getting positive feedback more than criticism, so let her know this revision of her executive order is a step in the right direction and is appreciated. However, we have to remind her that the Library of Michigan should remain located in the Michigan Historical Center adjacent to the Archives of Michigan. Also, it is important that you understand that the Michigan Center for Innovation and Reinvention Board, an advisory body within the Department of Natural Resources, will play a significant role in determining the future of the Library of Michigan, its location, and its collections. The governor modified her executive order to read “Qualified individuals recommended for consideration for appointment to the Board should include librarians, historians, archivists, and others with relevant expertise.” We must write to the governor and make sure she understands that this Board MUST have not only librarians, historians, and archivists, but it should also have genealogists on it. So please keep up the good work. Write to Governor Granholm and keep the pressure on your state senator and representative to continue protecting the Library of Michigan. JP John P. DuLong, Ph.D. Acadian and French-Canadian Genealogy 959 Oxford Road Berkley, MI 48072-2011 (248) 541-2894, home (248) 890-4853, cell http://habitant.org
