To Richard W. Seymour, The Winfield Library of Marion county has a CD rom disk reader. They also have a new version of Family Tree for Windows, FTW 6.0. I put much of my genealogy into FTW. FTW includes several CD disks of soldiers of various times, Early marriages in U.S. etc. Plenty to keep a computer aquainted genealogist busy for a day. The Fayette County Library (home of Mr Newell) also has a CD reade on the computer upstairs in the Library. They have 6 of Broderbund world family tree CDs which I gave them. They also have FTW. I am sure either library would appreciate a CD rom containing Herb & Jeanie Newell's cemetery books and The Stalcups Cem. book of Marion County. Much of my genealogy is on FTW at Fayette also. Anybody with genealogy on computer would be welcome to install it at Winfield or Fayette either I am sure. Or send to me and I will install it. From old 83 year old Fred McCaleb.
