I also searched Google for William and found links to his work etc. July 17th is our 50th high school class reunion in Merrill. I'm not sure if he's planning to attend or not. He has not kept close ties with anyone from the class but did attend the 25th reunion. I would also recommend the obituaries in the Merrill Library. They are so useful. Through them I was able to locate my great grandmother. The obituaries go well into the 1800s to the present. I'm not sure where you are located or if you are able to get to Merrill. If you have a few names and approximate dates etc. I could look for them for you the next time I'm at the library. I did that for a guy in MI working on a branch of my tree. I made copies of obits and mailed them to him. I also have a CD of all the cemeteries in Lincoln County. They have recorded the information for anyone having a memorial. If they don't have a memorial they aren't on the disk. Don Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
