It is family legend that my grandfather, John Alfred BURDEN was a doctor during the
Hoover/Boulder Dam project. And I saw a picture of him in a Hoover Dam documentary
created by the Discovery Channel. Apparently he met my grandmother, Helen BROWN(E) (there
is some suspicion she was a nurse) and they were married in the nearby vicinity.
Ultimately, I want to get a copy of the marriage certificate but I have no dates or places
for a lookup yet.
So, working backwards a bit, could you please suggest where can I find info on the medical
staff that supported the building of the Hoover Dam? I've looked in all the places
that I can think of. Thank you.
