<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=4>You might write to the Railroad Retirement Board and request retirement records for the person you are researching. If you have his railroad or social security number it makes it easier for the records to be located. </FONT></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=4>I received a large packet from the board on my grand-father's service, first in Portland, OR in the early 1900's and then in Ohio until his retirement in 1971. It was very helpful to my genealogical research.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Georgia> Were you ever a member of the Washington Air Guard? I retired from the Oregon ANG and talked with a good friend of mine, Bud Opitz, who retired from the Oregon ANG and we both remembered a Bob Goodman who was with the Washington ANG.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
