Dear Lucille,

I hope you'll be able to attend our list reunion next July when you'll have
the opportunity to do research in the historical society, the genealogical
society, the county historian's office and the courthouse. In addition,
you'll be around fellow Niagara County researchers.

Regarding mention of your Rogers/Phillips families in the history books that
I have, they're just not listed. More important, church records from such
an early date as the 1830s are non-existent in Niagara County to my
knowledge.

I hope all of us will get the opportunity to meet you next year.
