Because we have a list of well over 300 members, I don't want to crash everyone's inbox. So from today (Saturday Feb 7 until Tuesday, Feb 10) Post any of the surnames you are working on that begin with the letter A, X, Y, or Z (and only A, X, Y, and Z) The folks must be within 3 generations of a St. Louis area connection. (That mean the St. Louis person, to that person's great-grandparents). This should help a bit since not all of the St. Louis connections started in this area. Remember our list covers the MO-STLOUIS-METRO area so that means anything within a 250 mile range. A pretty wide circle. The best post will have enough information for others to help you. Surname (capitalizing the surname is a great help to others reading the post) Any first names Locations Dates for Birth, Marriage, Death Any special notes like military service, schools, clubs Remember, we try not to post information about living people because of privacy issues. I have found paying attention to the mother's side of the family can help with the father's side. Good luck in finding some of those lost relatives! Laura
