You all are great! Iam your (almost silent) list host, and am always amazed at how often folks are given help here... and with a smile! You are all appreciated & I thank you for your assistance. I live in Lodi, California, and my Iron county MO data access is not the greatest. Margie Campbell Lodi, CA

Looking at the maps linked earlier on this list, Iron county did not exist in 1850. It looks like it was made up of Mad and SF (what counties are those)? Which county would Arcadia, Ironton, Granitville and Middlebrook have been in, in 1850? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
