Anybody here ever get up to Abilene? [View All]

[fudge stripe cookays]

Many of you know I'm writing a book on my Smith family history. The families are in pretty much every state in the union, including Texas, but I never get out to Abilene, and need to find some information.

I desperately need to look for a marriage announcement in the Abilene or Anson newspapers, but the Abilene library won't do lookups. They give you the name of a local genealogist they can recommend, but I have tried calling this woman several times and she does not respond.

There are also no Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness volunteers doing these types of lookups for that area.

I will pay copying costs, parking, whatever, if you are heading that way. PM for details on the wedding if you think you can do it.

Thanks, ya'll
