A recommendation; Joao just finished obtaining records for me as well. The first steps in breaking through my current brick wall. He found exactly what I requested and was extremely quick getting my records. I thought it would be slower, like those of us in Oklahoma. I got a packet today, but have yet to open my mail. ( Not home long enough. My son also wrote from boot camp. It's a great day for mail.) I tried for months to do it myself and got very lost, who went where with what name. I highly recommend Joao Ventura.
