Phyllis,

I would not mind doing some look ups but I think the thing to start with
is posting a list of all the files he has. From there it might be
easier to make xerox copies of part or all of the booklet and send it.
His work lacks a lot of dates and places and it is pretty hard to figure
out if you do not have some basic familiarity with the families
involves, or that's how I have seen them.
