The last thread has hit a nerve. I was in Salt Lake at the Mormon library they have there a few month ago and I noticed a book put out by the WPA on all the records in Warren County. I copied a few pages and then when I got home I compared this list to what the courthouse said it had and the courthouse came up very short!!! The list included about four different kinds of records for naturalizations- early ones and even more for later ones. The courthouse only has these little card file like records, and only one set of them. The list said that they had a group of old death cerificates covering about 10 yrs. The courthouse didn't know what I was talking about. They have this one list of deaths. Something is fishy here. I am going to go back and copy more of the book. I am wondering if they only have out a sampling of each kind of record for the public and the rest of unattainable. I have written before and they are not very happy to help- told me it would take a year or more to copy something for me. Maybe this is an overall attitude about making all the records available. I live in California but it would be nice if someone who lives near Warren could talk to the supervisor or person in charge at the courthouse about this. Diana
