First I called and spoke to a lovely woman named Marge Ferreira, if you are very sweet to her on the phone she'll tell you to write to her and she will kindly go look in the books and copy them for you but you need the exact name and birthdate of who you want. Any requests about the cemetery need to go directly to them or she will forward it. I've gotten several things from her in a weeks time each time....mike
