Hello, After months and months I finally received the death notice of my great great grandfather, Thomas D. Haines His death notice appeared in the December 3rd 1897 Public Ledger and invites the Ships Carpenters and Caulkers and the surviving members of Weccacoe Fire Co. to attend the funeral. Any suggestions to find out more about these two organizations? Thanks, Lorraine Maryland --------------------------------- Talk is cheap. Use Yahoo! Messenger to make PC-to-Phone calls.
