Thanks for the update. Time before last I got a draft in pounds sterling
and that cost $15 just for the draft. It was fast and easy but if one is
sending a small amount of money, it is pricey.
Dick Eastman's newsletter addressed this vary issue last weekend. If you
are interested in his report. Go to

I called Ruesch Int (on the
www.familysearch.org website), and they quoted
fees quite higher than $3.00. I told them I had a website that stated it
was a $3.00 fee, and they said that was about 10 years ago. Maybe I was
talking to the wrong person in their organization.

Dear Tali,
I have sent money to the UK through in 1997.
Ruesch International
700 11th Street NW
Washington, DC 200014-4507
You send them the amount and who it is to and they send you back a bill
and
then a draft with all filled out. I cost me only $3.00 to send
$60.12
American. At the time it was the easiest way for both of us. Now I use my
credit card. Was it more than travelers checks?
