<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am also a Seventh-day Adventist and have been on
and off this list since 1991. I think Lee provided the link you were
looking for while I was on vacation. Anyone doing OR Research (early)
might want to check the obituary index as statistically I was told that 4 out of
10 people in the NW (early years) belonged to the Seventh-day Adventist
church. That is off the top of my head from a research book I read about
10 years ago but after that I began checking many names and found lots of
results.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also... if you find an obituary you want, they are
also available at the Walla Walla College library in their various periodical
collections. You have to go in person but the copies cost a dime last time
I went. Might be helpful to someone already planning a research trip to
Walla Walla.</FONT></DIV>
