Jim- I am not sure about a search engine. It's Gayle's site but Etta and I saw a need for an Index to the Obits. You could email Gayle with your suggestion at GAYLELT@comcast.net As far as contributions, yes-- Gayle definitely wants them! They can be emailed to her at the same address. For those who don't have the site, it is www.rootsweb.com/mdcbalti/ There are lots of Vital Records there. To get to the index that I was referring to, go to VITALS, click OBITUARIES, then click on INDEX 1838-1901 at the TOP of the page. This is the site for Balto City but alot of county and city info overlap. Also check out Lee's great County site at www.rootsweb.com/~mdbaltim Kathy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Bishop" <jbishop44@verizon.net> To: <BALTGEN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, April 14, 2006 3:16 PM Subject: Re: [BALTGEN-L] index >I think it is a great service and appreciate what you all are > doing.
