Pat, Actually, money is not the problem. Time is the main consideration. Even though financial grants to help publish the books are available via the R.J. Taylor, Jr. Foundation of Atlanta, GA, I'm not aware of anyone else who is currently abstracting Houston Co., GA court records. There are tentative projects on the back burner from 2 other individuals, but there is plenty of work waiting for anyone who wants to abstract, transcribe, index and publish the Houston Co., GA court records. If any of you are interested in performing some of this work, the Taylor Foundation website is at: http://www.taylorfoundation.org If you want some ideas on which records need to be done, I'll be glad to let you know. You would have a wide array of choices. Many of these records could be viewed via LDS microfilm at an LDS Family History Library. Or, if you are real ambitious, and have a microfilm machine of your own, you could purchase the microfilm directly from the Georgia Archives and do the work at home. Take care! William A.

Maybe enough of us from far away could 'help' with a fund that would help you hire some help.
