Salina Links
Note: These links worked when I tried them, but over time they come and go. Sometimes they don't work temporarily, sometimes permanently. This is out of my control. If you find one that doesn't work, drop me an e-mail and I'll drop it from the list. If you know of a link that should be included here, send it in and I'll happily add it. -- Phil

Old Salina Phone Books (1943-1980) http://members.aol.com/rootsfinding/ksphone.html
I tested this by sending some information by e-mail, as given on the web site. I think someone is supposed to look up the phone numbers by hand in old books and send the results. After weeks of waiting, nothing has happened. Let me know if you have another experience.
