The reason i am passing this on is because much as I would be willing = to go read microfilm to look this obit up for Bill and much as the = microfilm is so close to where I work... I just can't do it.... being so = visually impaired that I need at least 7-X or more preferably 10-X (ten = times normal size) magnification to read normal newspaper text... and the = only microfilm readers I have access to give you at max no more than 3-X = magnification.. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it... or if you could tell = me who I could pay to look for it... IF you can't then thanks anyway = just for reading Bill's email request...

The bible never came back. In a sister's obituary Georgiana was said to be living in DC in 1952 and I believe she died 18 Aug 1954, perhaps in DC or that area. Would you be willing to do some obit research around that date for me. I know she had previously lived both in DC and in Alexandria, VA so the DC location may be just the best the obit sources knew. She might have been living with a daugher, Elizabeth Callier. She was a sister to my Fathers mother, Addie Mae Pennington and married a fellow named Polk Pennington who died after 1920. Best I can tell they were not closely related but it sure confuses everybody. Thanks, Bill Nash --=__Part5C7F5298.0__=--
