Larry,

Any idea what religion? A lot of the denominations will do research
(I think you may have to prove relationship in some cases) for a fee.

Sometimes there are genealogical societies that are heritage based
(such as the Polish Genealogical Society of America) that might be
able to assist.

Good Luck in your search.

Patti
