Richard: I am a distant member living in Columbia, Missouri. I have access to the State Archives at Jefferson City, Missouri as well as the Western Historical Manuscript Collection here in Columbia, Missouri. I usually get to St. Louis and Kansas City periodically to do research there as well. If members in North Carolina would like me to determine what records might be available in Missouri, I will do my best to help.

That is a very kind offer, Walt. Thanks for offering to help. I'll bet that some D-OGS member takes you up on it. - Richard Meyer, Walter A. wrote: > Richard: > > I am a distant member living in Columbia, Missouri.
