El Paso County, El Paso, Texas birth records (only good for those born in El Paso – look around for 1945 thru 1992) | http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/tx/elpaso/vitals/births/1960/ |
| Classmates.com website | www.classmates.com A few pointers: To receive the full value of this website, you need to become a gold member. However, you can access anyone's profile, whether they are a gold member or not, and post a note, or message to the alumni's profile. Classmates.com does not appreciate you directing alumni away from their site, so you need to be creative with your comment posting to an alumni's profile. Here is an example of what you can and should post: "Hey XXXX: Great to connect with you. Andress High School has an alumni association and it's growing quickly. Please take a moment to visit one of the two websites - a h s a a h y p h e n e a g l e s d o t c o m remove the spaces and add the dot and dash and you'll be able to get to the site, or do a search on the net for andress1978 or andress alumni association. Once you get there, you'll be able to join for free, and also learn what is going on with several of the classes. Looking forward for us to connect, too." Feel free to copy and paste the message, into each classmate profile. Several classes who have reunion committee teams, are using this simple (yet tedious) technique to draw classmates to where the "official information" is located. |
El Paso County, El Paso Texas marriage licenses (only good for those married in El Paso) | http://www.epcounty.com/clerk/marriagesearch.asp |
Please note: There are many websites out there claiming to be alumni sites or gathering places for alumni. Just a word of caution, most of these, such as classmates.com, charge a fee for alumni to join or reach out to other alumni. Some of these sites even claim to be "alumni associations" and they are not. This is the ONLY Official Alumni Association site of Andress High School, and we do not charge alumni a fee to register and connect with other alumni. (Class reps: if you join these other sites, you have NO access to obtain registration information for your reunion planning. Through our Association, you can contact us for access to your classmates contact info)
