Joy Fisher, the assistant project coordinator and archivist for South Dakota, has been leading the pack for over a year, and set the pace for the other state archivists. Recently, Jan Craven and the Louisiana archivists have taken the lead with 77 megabytes of data. As of November 29, 1998, the top 10 states by megabytes of data are: LA (77), SD (71), AR (69), KY (61), TX (50), PA (50), VA (48), IL (47), FL (44), and IN (44). Categories (with number of megabytes) of data stored in the Archives include: Miscellaneous (364), Census (197), Wills (19), Vital Records (71), Biographies (55), Deeds (44), Cemeteries (163), Churches (8), Court Records (14), Bible Records (3), Military Records (59), Newspapers (10), Obituaries (25), Tax Lists (1), and History (19) * * * * * NEW GENCONNECT BOARDS: Link to GenConnect Fun Facts at <http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/stats.html>.
