    1. [BOONE-L] Oregon DAR index with over 650,000 entries
    2. Hi Booners and Trailers, This is a WONDERFUL resource for those researching Oregon ancestors/pioneers, etc. The service is fast and friendly and inexpensive. Three cheers for Shirley! Geraldine Ingersoll DAR Chapters in Oregon have been submitting family records to the DAR library in Washington, DC. They consist of unpublished records found within the state--county records, bibles, cemetery records, genealogies, church records, etc. I have indexed all 320 volumes of these records. The result is a 1432 page index with over 650,000 entries. Members of the Champoeg Chapter DAR are willing to check the index for names and mail the appropriate pages from the volumes to you. Please e-mail me, directly, the names you wish checked. I need a given name as well as surname. If any of your names appear in the index I'll tell you how many pages are available. The records in these GRC volumes are very valuable. Many of the cemeteries were recorded in the first part of the 1900s and the tombstones may no longer exist. Hope this service will help Oregon researchers. Shirley O'Neil [email protected] ______________________________ X-Message: #3 Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2001 18:30:06 -0500
