Hi Michael. August is a terrific time to visit the Pacific Northwest and especially Skagit County. I have found mention of Adair in the Mt. Vernon Cemetery. I don't have that book at this location right now but hope to remember to bring it with me tomorrow. Have you visited the http://www.rootsweb.com/~waskagit/ . It is the Skagit County Page for the USGenWeb Project... It does have a search engine... That did not show any Adair's <sigh> Visiting Bellingham and Skagit County will probably be very helpful for you. The Skagit County Genealogy Group are nice. The Funeral homes are helpful. The Cemeteries are beautiful. etc.etc. Darilee ---------- > From: Michael Adair <MAdair1960@webtv.net> > To: WASKAGIT-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: James G.
