Hi Bobbi - I am happy to hear from you again. This is excellent information. Don't worry about not getting back very soon. I have lost track of messages like that too. I did get the record that email was about. I had a bunch of back and forth with the Familysearch people that was completely frustrating until I realized we were on completely different pages. Once I told them this and what I really wanted, they emailed me the record no charge. I was amazed. I do have other records like this I'd like to get. Your note will be most valuable.
