There *was* a large clan of REITHERs in SW Wash state where I grew up.
Most of them are dead now, but there are a number of relatives still
there. The men were fishermen, as was my grandpa, on the lower Columbia
River at Carrolls (between Kelso/Longview and Kalama, if you have a map
to check). If you're interested, I can forward you a couple of names,
addresses and phone numbers.

One thing you *can* do is a search by the name. However, you may be
overwhelmed with the results as anything with the name will be listed,
e.g., authors, et al.

There are quite a few. One place to check out and bookmark is:
