    3. This note was sent to me as a Wilkinson County query, but I think there might be someone on the mailing list who could help Marilyn with this request. She is not on the mailing list so send replies to: mbowersjensen@msn.com Carolyn Switzer Dear Carolyn: I am trying to locate the family of Richard G. Larrieu who was Killed in Action during world war II on January 25, 1945. My dad was with his company and was also Killed in Action that day. I am trying to locate 1st Lt. Larrieu's family to tell them about a monument which I have erected where they were killed, which has Richard's name engraved. All I know is from the national archives, which indicates he was from Wilkinson County, MS. Do you know anyone who might be able to go through the newspapers for this time period and see if they are any obits, etc. which might mention family members. My mother was informed of my father's death on February 14th, so I would start with that date, February 14, 1945. I would gladly pay for a researcher's time to do this. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you very much. Marilyn Bowers Jensen, daughter of PFC Rex Bowers, Company C., 134th Infantry Regiment, 35th Division, Killed in Action January 25, 1945.
