Intelius says the telephone number listed with WHOIS is from Ashland WI.
If you search Intelius for Straley in Wisconsin, result #46 is Guy Straley in Cameron WI. They have an address, but no phone number, and 70 total public records they will provide for $7.95.

And AmyLiz explains my post a lot better than I could.
Amy, I'm believing he's real, and that he may or may not be dead, and that he was smart enough, and witty enough, to make us believe a lot of stuff he couldn't sustain--maybe he got in too deep and couldn't figure out a way to extricate himself, or maybe he had cancer and preferred the explanation of a weremonkey bite over the more mundane reasons for chemo.
Um...
First, from Wikipedia:
In the United States death certificates are considered public domain documents and can therefore be obtained for any individual regardless of the requester's relationship to the deceased.[link] So in other words, we have a right to such info.
For Cameron, WI, this information would be handled by the Barron County Register of Deeds. Among other things, they handle "Vital (Birth, Marriage or Death) Records." [link] [link]
I'm planning on calling them and asking if a Guy Straley of Cameron, WI has passed away in the last month. If they can't tell me, I think I will request a death certificate.

Well heck. I'll do it for that. If it will serve to make anyone on this board feel better, it's worth it to me.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong -- it keeps telling me there are 26 G Straleys nationwide, but none in Wisconsin.
Deena, exactly. That's exactly where I am.
The thing that bothers me is the issue of his ... well, death, now that I've had time to think about it. Because it's completely manipulative, whether he's doing it or someone else. Maybe no one asked for money or material help, but it's not cool to screw with people's emotions.
And yeah, now that I've read everyone's thoughts over the last twenty-four hours, I've pretty much turned all the way around on this. Just for the record.

I believe that info to be wrong, or not the person we're looking for. If you google the area code and whatever you call the next three numbers, all the results are for Cameron and vicinity. Ashland is a ways away. I got the Ashland thing from one search, but Cameron from another.
Or maybe it's a cell # and he moved and kept the same number....
Well heck. I'll do it for that. If it will serve to make anyone on this board feel better, it's worth it to me.
I've already done so. (But I forget the exact name of the company I used - don't think it's the one you mentioned.) They failed to find an immediate match, so they say they'll have the info for me in 48 hours.
