Point being is if you have a name, a city, a state, a residence you can find some interesting stuff on yourself or the person that you may be researaching. Sometimes you have to 'play' with the spelling & have plenty of patience. Even just starting with ones own name to research birth certificate offers clues. Once you start you become creative! Also, I'm not sure if it's still the same but you could register with Ancestry.com for 30 days--FREE. All that's required is that you cancel b4 the 30th day and THEY WILL NOT pull out any money. *Not sure if they still offer this.....Just some thoughts!

Those guys are into everything and remember a lot of the unusual stuff.

Might also be worth trying other searches with "Dodgers" included, such as "stretcher," "kidney stone," etc. But I'm confused - was Paul Ryan a player with the Dodgers, or part of the crowd?
