HI CAROL. THESE MAY BE AVAILABLE ON INTER-LIBRARY LOAN THROUGH YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY. OTHER THAN THAT YOU HAVE TO GO TO THE STATE ARCHIVES AND VIEW THEM. I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF THE COUNTIES HAVE THE RECORDS IN THEIR OFFICES. I HAVE NOT HEARD OF THAT, BUT THE LOCAL HISTORIANS MAY BE ABLE TO ANSWER THAT. I HAVE USED MANY AND THEY ARE FUN.
