Thanks to everyone who responded. I got six responses as of now. It is always hard to know how popular some of these lists are. I have been on a Somerville mailing list for several years and there is a message or two every couple of months. Then I was on the Allegheny County (PA) list and got so many messages each day I had to unsubscribe. I'm glad to meet you all and I thank you for the geography and for the suggestions.. I will try the Johnstown and Licking County Genealogical Societies for possible obits. -- John Middleton, Leawood, Kansas Middleton, SCT>Liverpool, Eng>Chicago, IL, 1800-1920; Neely, IRL>PA, 1759-1900; Chid(d)ester, WV>OH, 1800-1900; Som(m)erville, Grasmere, Eng, 1700-1850 Web Page: http://www.planetkc.com/jmcpa -- Unbuttoned Press - Genealogy Publishing
