Hi, Diane, I have never been to the DC archives. I hope to go up there soon, but have to try and find out first what the procedures are. I looked at a website but am still mystified! I'll be trying to call and get information, or post to the list. You might try posting your request to the list. But I'll be happy to look for the name change when I go there, once I figure out what to do.:-) I may have some ancestors in NY that I could ask about later. Thanks.
