Hello:
My name is Martha, I am the St Louis City and County, Missouri County Coordinator.
I do not live in Missouri so cannot do 'on the ground' research:
But, that said, I am an excellent online researcher and might
be able to assist in locating that missing piece of your "Ancestral Pie"
Contact: Martha
