Hi everyone, I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Kristy Williams and I am the new County Coordinator and listowner for Sumter County. I'd like to thank Denise for the great work she did on the Sumter site. There are several new areas I would like to mention. We have a "First Families" section. Your ancestor doesn't have to have really been a "first" family. It was just a catchy name. Here you can send in photos, histories, stories, just about anything of interest about your ancestors. I believe genealogy is more than just names dates and facts. It's about how they worked, loved, laughed and lived. There is also birth, marriage and death pages. Here you will be able to send in names, dates and locations if known with your name and email address as a contact. There will also be a "War" page, so that important information about our ancestors in the wars can be placed. Also, a section for towns/communities and schools. This will be a place for histories, photos, stories etc. Well, there are lots of areas to contribute information and make Sumter come alive. I invite you to come and check it out and of course, if you have any information you would like to contribute, I will be happy to post it. Sincerely, Kristy Williams http://www.rootsweb.com/~alsumter
