Many thanks for the wonderful tips and insight into searching the archives at NARA and in the FHC's. Your help in invaluable. The way people extend themselves to folks seeking information from this group never ceases to amaze me. It is lovely to know such kindness and generosity is there for the asking. David, Kim, Julie, Arleen, Bill ,and all those who wrote off list, I hope I get to repay you for your kind interest one day. All provided good ideas for an approach to information to be found at the FHC's and NARA. I had no idea it was not a place I could just stroll into one day and begin pouring over books, a little like my local library. I'm sure you saved me a great deal of time and energy. I'll get busy on the Internet first and make contact before showing up on their doorsteps unannounced. Again, I am thankful for your help. Carol, Atkinson **************Gas prices getting you down?
