Dear Mr. Broder: I am not related to Mr. Janis. I am nephew of Robert C. Brown, Indianapolis, deceased. Mr. Brown purchased an Oil & Gas Lease (N.Dakota) from Petroleum Research Co. - Milton W. Janis, dated 1953. I take care of his widow's business, as we recently found this document. Would you be able to direct me to a subsequent company that may have acquired PRC from Mr. Janis, that I may research disposition of this ancient lease? Thank you in advance for any light you may shine on this matter. Kind regards, James C. Culhan
