Anyone who has ever had any dealings with the clerks and administration in DC know that you are in for a battle. Or maybe I should say up against a wall. Some do not fit this rule. But I have had nothing but incompetence everywhere. Not only do most of them not know what they are doing - they don't care. As I said I did run into one who was helpful, but she got stared down by the rest of the staff. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Emaress Nova" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, July 10, 2005 9:31 AM Subject: Re: [WashingtonDC'' ] Question about Prison Records > > Wendy, > > Since you are right there in Reston, you might > just call Martin Luther King Library 202-727-2255 > and ask for genealogy room.
