able to fulfill every request...But give me a try & I'll do my best to
help you. I ask only that you be SPECIFIC in stating what info you
are looking for.
My address & instructions for requesting follow at the end of this
entire message. Please keep your reguests to the minimum as to
wording, & do NOT include extraneous info as to your findings, etc,
as I will not be doing the researching--This will be YOUR task thru

my services are "FEE-FREE" in the interest of "People helping other
people." Thank You!
*More follows below*
County Courthouses in most states are the main sources for obtaining Vital Records &
other pertinent info of interest to genealogists. But as many of us are researching in
areas far distant from our places of residence; contacting Courthouses in those areas oft
presents a problem. In this respect I have a copy of the 2nd Edition of the County
Courthouse Book by Elizabeth Petty Bentley. It covers all 50 States as well as the
American Protectorates of American Samoa; Guam; Puerto Rico & the US Virgin Islands
for a total of 3,125 Courthouses.
Should any listers have need for the address, phone number, & services offered by any
of the various Courthouses you may contact me by E-mail at the address below & I will
be only too pleased to share the info as a genealogist to genealogist service. I adhere to
the code of: "GENEALOGY...PEOPLE HELPING OTHER PEOPLE."
*NOTE* I always assume that genealogists are looking for Vital Rec-
ords so I will list only the Contacts for VR's. If you wish the Contacts
for Land, Naturalization, or Probate Records please advise me acc-
ordingly in your request. Thank You!
