Hi Bob and Barbie-Lew,
Thanks for the additional information. I have come across the MIEHE's in Iowa often in various indices and wondered about a possible connection. Have found no indications in Illinois to suggest one, but perhaps a follow-up from the Iowa side might help. Bob, do you know if there is any connection?

Hi
I have told all that I know. I found the Heumann part on an LDS film or
site - forget which.
