Hi Marilyn-today I am 74-how long have we corresponded? Quite a while..anyway this is my question. You mentioned you were putting your notes on the computer. In what form? FTM or what? I started some on the FTM and lost them, didnt back them up-but have started again-it wasnt many. What I have done is just take all the loose papers, still have a box or two, and type the notes under various surnames-then the ones that arent indexed are rather hard to find a specific item. You are so well organized, would like to know how you are doing it. thanks-Ellen
