I don't feel you're being a party pooper, although I feel if the individual is in a position to help those that need assistance and the prices are reasonable, I am all for it. As a college student, time and money are valuable assets since their never enough of either. I applaud Kelley's offer to assist.

Ditto, Brian. I am quite sure some of our ancestors were in Military Services, so her offer to help is quite reasonable and pertinent to helping folks research. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian G.
