Hope this helps you a little. It seems most of them moved to the Oregon area so you might check the phone listings in that area for possible relatives. Another thing you might check is
www.rootsweb.com and search the family tree for any of the names. Possibly someone else has done some research. Or search the message boards. You may find a nice person willing to look some stuff up for you in that area. (Be careful when people suggest you contact Randam Acts of Kindness because their "volunteers" have tried to charge people in the past for a "free" service.)
If you need anything further feel free to contact me.
