• Notes

  From: Sent: Saturday, February 05, 2000 11:18 AM Source: LAIRD-L@rootsweb.com I have in my possession a packet of papers including lineage work sheets and a fair number of letters used in the preparation of the Compendium of American Genealogy, dating from the 1930's to the early 40's. These papers have no connection to my Laird family, but may be of interest to someone on this list. I will send the packet of papers to the first person who requests them, tells how they are related (or may be related) to one of these families, and sends their mailing address. 1.
