This is taking some time due to the size of the files and the amount of information. Aaron has also been talking about giving the site a whole new look, but we have to give him some time. So you can figure out where Aaron fits into the picture, he is the Son-in-law of Steve and Laura Melton and is a computer specialist in Redmond, Washington. He comes with really good recommendations so we will have to see what he does on the site. > >When he has all the files fixed, the following will be what is currently scheduled to be online (after all the files are reformatted). There will be all or part of the following counties: > >Amador >Butte >Colusa >Del Norte >Fresno >Humboldt >Kern >Lake >Los Angeles >Madera >Marin >Mariposa >Modoc >Monterey >Nevada >Placer >Riverside >San Benito >San Bernardino >San Diego >San Francisco >San Luis Obispo >Santa Barbara >Shasta >Sutter >Tehama > >When you visit the website at http://www.rootsweb.com/~cabf1905 you will note that there are other counties currently in trancription. More records for the above counties are also still in transcription. > >Furthermore, we have discovered that there just might be some El Dorado records out there that did not get burned in the fire. We are currently working toward accessing those and will keep you posted. > >Donations for the project and funding for the outstanding counties is still deperately needed. Whatever you can do to help cam be sent to me and will be greatly appreciated. > >PLEASE, be patient with the improvements on the files online. We are working as fast as we can and will keep you posted on how we care coming. > >Thanks for your patience, understanding and support. >Donna Bradley >Project Coordinator >Pre-1905 Project >P. O.
