I don't think they have a copy at my library but since I will be there on
Saturday I will look for it.  I have somehow lost my link to the Archives
which I used to use all the time.
I recently did the Ancestry DNA test and a whole lot of my cousins are
resurfacing from years past.  I am having a ball.
Thank you too.
Dale
