Can we help? Well maybe. I have done some census searches for the folks you name, however, before I take the time to type them up for posting here, do you already have them traced on the census? If you have found them almost impossible to find on the census it is because the enumerators spelled their surname in various ways. I found them both in 1900, and as you know that census shows the month and year of birth which should help you greatly. And since any death after that will tend to be listed somewhere you may be in luck. Before any lister jumps on that statement, any death for these 2 could be listed: in the WestmoCo 1893-1905 Early Deaths at the Courthouse, or the post-1906 records at the State, or, if you are truly lucky, in a newspaper. Considering I could find William back to 1850, perhaps he rates a newsarticle death notice since he was a long time resident. Check the Adams Dead-a-Base in WestmoCo genealogy sources. Google it as I do when I need it. Check Find-a-Grave, too. Bella Apr 13, 2011 06:13:32 PM, pawestmo@rootsweb.com wrote: Hello, I am looking for at least the Birth and death dates for William G.
