Does Adair county have a published list of marriages that can be researched. I am looking for marriages of the Myers family who lived in Unionville, Putnam County, but previously area was part of Adair and Sullivan and Dodge Counties. I have been going round and round for many years looking for their marriages. I suspect if I find one, I'll find the others. The most unusual name ie Wesley Myers to an Elizabeth Unknown, Unknown date. First child was born 1849, so suspect marriage took place 1845-1850 RN [email protected]

The post below was accidentally sent to the wrong address, so I am forwarding it to the list.

Good morning, I would like to know if someone on the list would be near or have access to a library whom could make a copy of the 1860 & 1870 Soundex for 3 surnames I am trying to research in Missouri. The Soundex is in book form and not on any film or fiche. I live in Florida and do not have access to the books and can not get them via inter library loan. I appreciate any assistance you can provide me. Thank you, Addie
