List,

In response to an e-m query, Mark Jones sent the following:

| Hi--

| Sorry, our written records from that period do not exist. All that is
| left are the Board minutes of the period.

However, as I pointed out in an earlier posting to the list, there have
traditionally been more than one Musicians Union halls in Buffalo -- the ones
that I am personally familiasr with from the 60's are the "Black Musicians Union"
and the "Other One".

My Great Uncle was listed as a member of Local No. 43 and Mark Jones' response
does not verify that his present union is the successor to that one.
