    3. There is a new posting to the BrethrenArchives.Com Offering web site. You can view this by visiting http://offering.brethrenarchives.com/index.php?option=com_content <http://offering.brethrenarchives.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=arti cle&id=626:the-gospel-messenger-offering-105&catid=38:2011&Itemid=57> &view=article&id=626:the-gospel-messenger-offering-105&catid=38:2011&Itemid= 57. I have spent a little time and taken the opportunity to cross link the two BrethrenArchives.Com sites presently available to the general populace - the Brethren Offering site and the Montgomery County, Ohio site. On each site there is a section in the sidebar that will provide links to various sites I wanted to let others be aware of; some German Baptist Brethren and some non-German Baptist Brethren. In the Brethren Offering site you want to look in the "Resources" sub-menu items. On the Montgomery County, Ohio site you want to look in "Sites of Internet." They both do the same thing. I am glad to announce that more records have been indexed on the Montgomery County, Ohio site. Mr. Davis and I presently have indexed the entire index of 114 pages for the exception of the letters M thru R. Remember, there is no bride's index, only the grooms' index. Once the project is complete it will be an extremely handy tool. It has already been handy for my research even though we only have 3,128 names in it. You can access the Montgomery site through the Offering link above and then navigating to the Resources : Non-Brethren links. With Mr. Davis' assistance, and if you are still willing, we can start on the marriages from 1844 to 1851. Thank you Mr. Davis and I eagerly await your next batch of index entries. I have also taken the time to figure out how to put into place a "Statistics" pane on each site. At present it shows how many members on each site, how many articles (content), web links and how many times the articles (content) have been accessed. I am evaluating software to make this feature more functional. The two sites have been accessed slightly over 2,500 times since their release in early January and all that just by word of mouth! Thank you! Cordially, A. Wayne Webb
