Good evening all, I was wondering if anyone could help with a translation of the following found on film# 941451 MO Gasconade Probate Record 1877-1891 pg 630 May 11, 1882 " In the matter of the estate of Friedrich Helmig deceased last will and testament approved. The last will and testament of Friedrich Helmig deceased probated in "vacation" is by the court approved" What does vacation mean..... I have co-workers, etc... does anyone have a clue as too what this is trying too say?? Anything would be appreciated Thank you Fay Mesa

Hi Listers, Can someone tell me what the hours of the Gasconade Historical Society are, and the location? I will be visiting in June and would like to do some research there if I can. Thank you for your help. Jennifer

The Owensville newspaper is called the Gasconade County Republican. They have been around for a very long time so I am sure if you called their number in Owensville you could request it. I live out of state and no longer take the paper from there so I don't have the number but the area code changed last year to 573. I'm sure you can get a number at 573-555-1212 which should be directory assistance for there. Good Luck.

Hi Pattie; Do you know what Co, Owensvill is in? If so check MOGENWeb, alot of the county pages have the local newspapers listed & even some Obits from the papers. Good Luck, Jeannine Burks

Dear Pattie, You would need to get in contact with the State Historcial Society of MO Attn: Newspaper Library 1020 Lowry St. Columbia, MO 65201-7298 573-882-7083phone 573-884-4950 fax I know that they have change their policy regarding doing lookups just this year... and if I remember per letter a request of 3 with a $15.00 fee if your out of state or non-member. The only draw back with them is that you need to the exact date of the person death, and county they died in. Good luck in your search... Fay Mesa searching...... Helmich, Helming, Helmig, Hufstedler, West, Cox, and many other surnames. ----- Original Message ----- From: Patricia Cooper <pcooper@peaknet.net> To: <MOGASCON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, February 24, 2001 1:17 PM Subject: [MOGASCON] Newspaper obit > Hello everyone if I wanted a obit out of a newspaper that served > Owensville, Missouri where would I write to to ask for it. > > > > Pattie > > > ==== MOGASCON Mailing List ==== > Want to be a Rootsweb sponsor?
