Humorous Correspondence to the LDS Family History Library
(For those who don't know the LDS Church is one of the leading
organizations in genealogical research. They get letters and phone calls
from all over asking for their help.)
These questions are from actual correspondence received by the LDS
Family History Library:
Our 2nd great-grandfather was found dead crossing the plains in the
library.
He was married 3 times in the endowment house and has 21 children.
For running down Wheelers, I will send $3 more.
He and his daughter are listed as not being born.
I would like to find out if I have any living relatives or dead
relatives or ancestors in my family.
Will you send me a list of all the Dripps in your library?
My grandfather died at age 3.
We are sending you 5 children in a separate envelope.

hit
Topeka, Kansas, now only the Good Lord knows where it is....
The wife of #22 could not be found; I have worked on her for 30 years
without success; now see what you can do.
I have a hard time finding myself in London; if I was there I was very
small and cannot be found.
This family had 7 nephews that I am unable to find; if you know who they
are, please add them to the list.
We lost our grandmother. Will you please send us a copy?
Will you please send me the name of my first wife. I have forgotten her
name.
A 14 year old boy wrote: "I do not want you to do research for me. Will
you please send me all the material on the Welch line in the U.S.,
England and Scotland countries? I will do the research."
Further research will be necessary to eliminate one of my parents.
