You have given me many avenues to search. townships, counties and States. Thank you for looking for Herbert B. Faulkner in the 1910 Census. I failed to mention that Herbert died in a train accident 15 Nov 1908 in Grant Co. NM. I don't know what his middle name was. It could have been Benjamin or it could have been Burton. Presently I am in the process of getting a death certificate from Grant Co. NM. I just have to take the time to go to the Grant Co. NM site and get the address of the County cleark or who ever is the keeper of the vital records for Grant and get the ball rolling. I have acess to his burial records but there is no mention of his middle name or parents. I might get lucky with the death cert. and one or the other names may turn up in the death cert. Thank your for the big boost of help. Mike.
