Pat, If you get any info where GAR post records might be found I'd appreciate hearing about it! I'm still trying to identify a group of JP Nichols GAR post in Rockland, RI gentlemen. It is my understanding that the post would close when the last member died and that last member would have the records........I've had no luck so far locating any.
