	I am helping a friend trace her great grandfather whom she believes was adopted. I have found him on the census records but don't have a subscription. Details are: Alfred Sanders Jacobs born c1890 who was married to Ella Ann Wishmire. I can see a marriage in Indiana and them living in Michigan. Would love to get more details as to where he was born, etc. Thanks, Rose
