HATCHER website: http://hatcherfamilyassn.com HALL DNA project: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~nhatcher/hall/HDNAtest.htm When confronted by a difficult problem, you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger have handled this?" - Unknown Now that Sam has opened the door, I'm going to ask my stupidest question ever. I KNOW there are birth, death, marriage recs and a whole lot more on the LVA site. But over the years the site has gone thru changes, I've lost URLs and now I can no longer find ANY of these records. I give up in frustration trying to search thru a variety of links on the site that get me nowhere. The only dbase for which I currently have a direct URL are the chancery records. I should mention that when I search, I always search for surname only and not specific individuals. Can anyone provide direct URLs or simple instructions to find the following dbases/records? Birth-Death-Marriage Bibles Deeds Wills-Probate Military Newspapers Have I omitted any that would be of value in geney research? Thanks bunches!
