The 1930 Federal Census for Thurston County, Washington list a George Pool, age 64, Physician residing in Yelm Township. He is the only person in the household. A check of the Washington State Death list between 1940 and 1996 does not show him as having died in Washington during that time. A check of the Thurston County Cemeteries that are on line does not show any Pools interred. For your information census information is on roll T626_2521, page 3A for Thurston County, Yelm Township, Washington. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2003 9:08 AM Subject: [WASHINGTON-L] George T.

Thank you Janet for the suggestion. The reason I brought this request to this list is as a genealogist I have a really great relationship with a local cemetery, a terrific one with Washelli, and a comfortable working relationship with three mortuaries... all on the west side. I am assuming that there is someone in the Tri-Cities area that has worked with the Mueller Funeral Home and established at least a comfortable working relationship... I am assuming the woman I talked to over the phone is cautious and conservative by nature and once she see's a friendly face...everything will be OK. My husband is active in the local VFW (he'll be marching in the parade in downtown Everett to welcome the Local Military guys home). I have contacted some Posts for information/help and intend to contact more of them. Thank youDarilee Janet <[email protected]> wrote:Hello Darilee......

Does anyone have a good working relationship with Mueller's Funeral Home in Kennewick? I need any information that Mueller's have on Robert A. Miller born 20 Jan 1947 and died 25 May 1968 in Vietnam. Miller's father was Douglas Miller and he had two brothers, Charles and Mike. and a sister Charlene. The only other names were his Grandparents.

Goodness knows I believe in what your are saying... Washington-L is primarily a genealogy history list with no affliations with USGenWeb... Perhaps this discussion would be better served by taking it to NW/plains list or the wagen list... both of them subcribed to by CC's. and personally... if you forward material to a list I like to know from whom the material originated.
