Thanks for the info Molly. I don't recall now who did the check for me since it was four or five years ago. I sent an E-Mail to the Chickasaw Co., list and asked for help. Some kind soul, such as you, responded. I'm sure if you followed the same tact someone would help you as well. Are you in Aberdeen? Maybe the Evans Library would have a list, just a thought. Jim.
