I am searching for my mother's half sister. She was born Teresa Inez Belk on 3/21/1955 in either San Diego County or Los Angeles County, CA. Her mother's name was Carol Jane Reynolds. Teresa may have gone by the name Reynolds or even another last name. This is a long shot for us, but my mother grew up an only child and it has only recently come to light the fact that she had half siblings. We have located two half brothers, but wish to find the other half siblings. I am not sure how to go about finding her, but have high hopes of finding her. I live in Georgia, therefore, I am not a local that can go dig through records. Any help or tidbit of information would be of great help. Also, any ideas of how I might locate her is greatly appreciated.

The letter begins; "To whom it may concern"! If there is anyone in Andy's family who write English, I would like to hear from them. It ends: If someone answers this, I will fill in the details. Summary of my resurch: - Anders joined the Military Army 1918 in Montana - He married Irene E.

I think he was a veteran of the Spanish American War [1898], serving in the N. Dakota Division 8. The only other clue I have about him is that he is said to have been the "conservative mayor of a small California town," but I don't know what town or when. My guess is that it was a town in San Diego County and that he was mayor sometime between 1910 and 1940, though it might have been a little bit later.
