| Important Note: |
| If you do not find the ancestors you are looking for under the state
you believe that person's record should be located, realize that the event
may have actually occurred within another state as the boundaries were
probably different than they are today. Sometimes the transcriber recorded
the event under the wrong state. Frequently, state codes (the two letter
postal codes that abbreviate the name of a state) are misread. The codes
of the following states are some of the state codes most frequently misread: |
| CO |
Colorado |
| CT |
Connecticut |
| MA |
Massachusetts |
| ME |
Maine |
| MI |
Michigan |
| MN |
Minnesota |
| MO |
Missouri |
