receive, but we ask genealogists to request only very specific pieces of
information, please. In addition, please supply as much background
information as possible, so we'll have something to work with.
We urge genealogists
who need in-depth research to try consulting the LaGrange County Genealogist
Barb Mulholland at
bmulhollandadamslake@gmail.com, the Indiana
Genealogy Society's Researchers List, or Allen
