Query for Defiance Co., Ohio

Query for Defiance Co., Ohio

Preparing a query is similar to preparing a newspaper classified ad; you want to attract attention and hold the reader's interest to the end of the query. It is best to limit a query to one surname; too many surnames become difficult to follow. Since your query should describe someone who lived in Defiance County, Ohio, it is not necessary to include this in the opening statement. The word Defiance, however, must be in the text.
SURNAMES should be in CAPITAL letters, and first and middle names in lower case letters. Please identify dates as day/month/year, and use standard abbreviations.
