I am proofing a 800+page book. This book contains abstracts of newspaper articles. All names are indexed. On 3 of the pages, there are a few names in the articles where the Surnames are missing the 1st letter. (These entries are indexed and the index has the complete spelling so the letters were there when they were indexed. ) [e.g. The letters in red are example of missing letters. SAMPLE PARAGRAPH: Mrs. Bell leaves five children: Mrs. Edna Vanskiver, Winter Haven, Fla.; Mrs. Ethel E. Haas, Columbiana; Ernest K. Bell, Leetonia; Herschel M. Bell near Rogers; Rolland O. Bell, Green Cove, Fla. She also leaves one great granddaughter, one sister, Mrs. Tirzah Lane, Dresden, O.; two brothers, George McGinnis, Springfield and John McGinnis, of Zanesville. I have copied these paragraphs and pasted them into note pad. The letters are missing there. Any help would be appreciated. DeWayne McCarty
