Great that you found the record, Jackie. For Al, I wanted mention that if you can't find someone, sometimes it is because the information is too specific. You sometimes get better results with a minimum of information, even though you might get a lot more irrelevant hits. Between the spelling, and the transcription errors, and the information we think we know because we saw it in another record, sometimes it's just best try with less.
