PS - Over the years I've met many wonderful people researching in DC...This includes John Dorman (who has written several books, mosely about Virginia)....I've also visited the DC archives with 2 members of the list on 2 separate occasions. Funny to find someone on the street corner waiting for you to pick them up...it's like a blind date, but a wonderful one! I also still have the DC memories page for those of you who have not seen it yet it's http://www.geocities.com/heartland/flats/4759. It's memories of people who have grown up in the DC area. (This is a free site....no spam here). Anyhow, hopefully I'll be able to research more in the future. Deb
