    What's wrong with the list of the branches at the back of the Yearbook?

    I take it you're referring to "Selected offices of Jehovah's Witnesses"?

    Firstly, they're "selected", so not necessarily a comprehensive list. Secondly, there is no indication of which offices are branch offices, and which are country offices.

    I'm afraid on this occasion there is method to my madness.

    OK Cedars & Slimboy, let's not have a repeat of your last altercation! ...

    Guyana bethel: there were just 8 members in bethel family; so reducing that branch is no big deal. Merged with Suriname?

    Thanks for the heads up Weana, that's a small bethel family indeed!! It's nice to have a possible lead on Guyana's swift disappearance, after only being dedicated in 2003.

    Great thread.

    I guess one could send envelopes and see which ones come back "return to sender...address unknown".... return to sender....ta dum te dum

    I am curious as to branches or offices in countries with "liberal" banking and Hedge fund practices......

    Hey...who has an Elvis clip..

    Return to Sender....address unknown......

    Return to sender, return to sender
    I gave a letter to the post man, he put it his sack.
    Bright and early next morning, he brought my letter back.
    She wrote upon it:

    Return to sender, address unknown.
    No such number, no such zone.
    We had a quarrel, a lovers' spat,
    I'd write "I'm sorry" but my letter keeps coming back.

    So when I dropped it in the mailbox, I sent it "Special D"
    Bright and early next morning, it came right back to me.
    She wrote upon it:

    Return to sender, address unknown.
    No such person, no such zone.

    This time I'm gonna take it myself
    And put it right in her hand
    And if it comes back the very next day
    Then I'll understand.
    The writing on it:

    Return to sender, address unknown.
    No such person, no such zone.
    Return to sender, return to sender.

    lol, thanks Balaamsass!

    In case anyone missed it, I've put the 98 suspected branches on a Google map.

    Here is the link: http://goo.gl/maps/zYIlE

    I will obviously try to keep the map updated as and when branches close or are "merged".

    I intend to mark on the map the location of recently closed branches (such as Ireland, Norway, New Zealand etc) using black placemarks, but I'm too tired to do it now!

    Is that only selected branches?

    A similar video to this Mormon one might be interesting, showing first the increase in Watchtower branches, followed by the decline.
