Try Library of Congress and Martin Luther King Library in Washington. I know there are some DC City Directories in the Regional Public Library in Fairfax, Prince William and Fauquier County Library. You can find addresses for them under Libraries in Cyndislist.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security.
