Message Board Post:
I spoke with the Librarian again this afternoon at the Research Center in regards to the
booklet. She did some free research for us and was able to give me the authors’ names.
She has requested that only one of us contact them initially. I told her that I had
informed the group that I felt that we should do this out of respect for the author.
(Before I knew there were two authors) She was able to give me the address, so we will
not have to wait until I receive my copy in the mail from my husband’s niece, for me to
correspond with the author/s.
She also gave me permission to scan the handwritten page without the source information
and post it to the board. I read her the information from the page and she is going to do
a search and mail me the source information. When I receive it, I will post it to the
board.
I have done a brief search to find out who “Bill Longley” was. I am including a link for
the search results.

After reading the attached page, I don’t think it will take you long to figure out which
links to click on for further information on him.
Also, since she knows who I am and my family, she is doing us another favor. It also
helped that the board/list is willing to respect the author of the booklet and not
inundate the author with requests for further information until we have received his
permission for the release of his name and address, etc. The favor is, she is going to do
a catalog search for the surname Chandler, le Chaundeler, and spelling variations. She
will give a brief description of the material for each finding of the names. (She will
mail the list when she mails the source info.) If the list is not to long, I will post it
to the board. I am sure there will be information that I want copies of. Anything I have
copied, I will pay for and share freely with the board/list members who are interested in
the material. If I am not interested in any material, I will give the information via
email on where to obtain the material. The cost of copying the material is $1.00/page
plus postage from the R!
esearch Center.
Again, I hope this will benefit others in their search.

PS If anyone has trouble transcribing the attached page, let me know. My copy is very
clear and I have no difficulty reading it.
