HI, Does anyone know if the library on Ashley St. will be open today- Today being Presidents day I was not sure- Thank you Peggy -

This comes from a lady in Ga.,Bullock Co.list. who is also affected by budget cuts- the libraries all over are being hit hard- Florida Libraries are on the budget hit list- Already some states are cutting back on services, etc. for their state libraries. Virginia has been closing on Mondays (last I checked). Here in Michigan the machinery is taking a hit and no money to fix as frequently as needed, so we go and there are LOTS of machines that do not work. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Stevens" <lashbrook@direcway.com> To: <PMcSwain@peoplepc.com> Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 6:53 AM Subject: RE: [GABULLOC] Fw: [FLHILLSB] TODAYS LAKELAND LEDGER > but then again NOT so hard > > Already some states are cutting back on services, etc. for their state > libraries.

Go to http://www.thpl.org Click on Information Gateway Click on Genealogy Then type in any of the names you are looking for. If there was an article or obit posted in the Tampa Tribune or any of its affiliates (includes several adjoining counties), more information will come up. Say the name of a person you are seeking is on this list, you click on the name and the computer will give you the name of the paper, day, date, column, page, etc. you need to obtain. If it's a book or article, most can be obtained via inter-library loan. If it's an obit or newspaper article, one of us can get it for you. There are also cemetery lists on-line, USF has a great library and on-line site, and other sites to help you along. Try the library site first and see what you find. If Hobbs, Marvin doesn't come up, broaden your search to Hobbs, and you may find more.

Hillsborough County listers, I am new to this list and wonder if anyone has any information regarding the following people: Marvin HOBBS who married RUBY MUSSELWHITE about 1934-35. Ruby is the daughter of Wm. & Mary E. (JOHNSON) MUSSELWHITE of Georgia. Wm & Mary were married in Colguitt Co., GA on 6 Dec 1903.

I live in Massachusetts and do not have easy access to your records. Thank you. Marcia
