I would like to point out a couple of items concerning requests for help. When asking for lookups about family members please do yourself a favor as well as the persons who may be able to help. Ask yourself this question. 1. If I were hiring a professional genealogist who charges an hourly rate would I give him any data? A. Need all the data on the STAUDER FAMILY. B. Need information on the burial of JOHN STAUDER. C. I am researching the family of JOHN ADAM STAUDER, born 5 Feb 1818 in , RUPPERTSBERG, BADEN, GERMANY, to U.S. in abt 1833 and settled in Illinois. married MAGDELENA KLONICH before 1835 she was born about 1807 in BAVARIA, GERMANY, they had 8 known children. If you posted the "B" above only to be given the information in "C" and then be charged a $100 for the same information you already had along new copies of death certificates and IGI printouts only to find out that there is at least one other JOHN ADAM and 23 additional John and variations of the Given name born in Germany during the same periods of time. Be courteous enough to at least provide the Volunteer with the same type of information you would give to the guy who is charging you. Oh yes, also remember to send him/her a thank you note. You just may need their help in the future. And make it something more than "Thanks". Bill
