This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: McGee / Magee Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/BUB.2ACI/6134 Message Board Post: Albert Jacob McGee was born March 31, 1853 in New York, Albany or Allegany. He had one known sister. We do not have her name. He died Jan. 11, 1920 in Marengo, McHenry County, Illinois. His death Certificate lists his parents as John McGee and Fannie Luke McGee both of Scotland. Can anyone tell me where I might write to retrieve a Birth Certificate for Albert? Can you help me with a look-up on the arrival of his parents from Scotland? Is there a State Archive I can contact? Our families would very much appreciate any help on the UP LINE of Albert. Thank You, Lettie
