Searching for an obit for Vera Bullard, d. Mar 1986 at Spokane, Spokane Co. - (97-years ... maybe?). Never married, so far as I know; mother to none that I know of. Native of Livingston, MT. Thanks to anyone who can help! Beth Watson Taylorsville, CA

Haven't received any mail since my E-mail change. Never known this list to be so quiet.

I am looking for Hugh R. Armstrong and his wife Arlyne (Hart) Armstrong. Arlyne was born 1921 and lived in the Spokane Valley. Arlyne's sister, Blanche Ione (hart) married Robert E. Jenkins. Blanche was born 1913. The Jenkins may also live around Spokane. Their brother, James LeRoy Hart may also live around Spokane. Arlyne, Blanches, and James are children of Bert and Myrtle Hart and I have not found them in the Social Security Death Index yet, so I am assuming they are still living. They are my cousins and I would love to get in touch with them. If anyone knows these people or their descendants, please contact me or have them contact me. Thanks for any help.

Hello List My name is Darilee Bednar and I am usually working on my webpage for Skagit County USGW... but I am involved in a project to "place faces to the 1050 men from Washington State whose names are on the Vietnam Memorial Wall. The front page is http://www.facesfromthewall.com Spokane County had (according to the official list on at the NARA site) 84 men whose town of record was Spokane... another 13 claimed other Spokane County towns. The only two men I have identified by picture for Spokane County are both Medal of Honor winners ... http://www.facesfromthewall.com/ffwspok2.html Bruce Grandstaff and http://www.facesfromthewall.com/ffwspok4.html Frank S. Reasoner (b. in Spokane but apparently raised in Kellogg ID and is not counted as an official Washington State man.... What I would like is help from the Spokane list to identify the Spokane County Men with pictures (high school yearbook pictures very acceptable) and obits and remembrances. These men did a lot of moving around after graduation from high school.. We have added 9 men to the National Archive's list because alert people said... "so and so graduated with me and he isn't on your list" and we've found that several of our Seattle men came from other states... and I'm kinda expecting the same for Spokane. Any help is appreciated.... Any help at all with this genealogy and history related project.... Darilee
