Dear Sally,

I live in Los Angeles and have been to the new Sentinel office.

It is on Crenshaw Blvd., near Exposition and is rather modern.

I am not aware of the location of their Records Department.
I would suggest that you call their Crenshaw office and determine their procedure.

They probably have someone there that can look it up for a nominal fee.

The West Adams district is lovely -- homes there are selling for $1 million plus.

Many of the African Americans have moved to Orange County or the Valley. There are some Latinos.

Good luck on your writing project!
