I know this is going to sound crazy, but did you look in the Social Security Death Index - I know I found Ephraim on something, but I don't know what it was when I was searching in Ilin. - Have you also checked the IL site for USGENWEB? Let me know if you have done these and I will check through my hoards of stuff, also go to http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~pierces and go to the Archives on the mailing list and search it. Let me know. <Happy Hunting> ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2000 11:50 AM Subject: [PIERCE-L] Re: Searching for Grandfather Ephraim Goodwin Pierce Gravesite. > Hello Listers, > My name is Mary Leona Pierce (Named after my Dad's sister) Holmes.
