YOU GO GIRL!!! I wholeheartedly agree - finding our roots is not always
easy, at least it hasn't been for me; I have no family to really help,
so I've had to depend on other records. I have yet to get a death
record from the Iowa State Health Dept.; my request always comes back
that they've done a 20 year search and found nothing. You have my
support in this concern. Nancee at (An Iowa native
