    3. Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness Movement http://www.rootsweb.com/~tnstewar/genkin.htm a way to find what you need in any county of the United States at cost- just pass it on! Welcome to Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness. This movement was begun by the Coordinators and researchers of the Stewart County, Tennessee TnGenweb site, but it is a movement for genealogists everywhere...and one we hope will grow very rapidly. Basically, it is not a great deal different from what internet researchers do every single day in great unselfish acts...sharing of information...BUT it has one decided difference. THE VOLUNTEERS OF THIS MOVEMENT ARE AGREEING ONCE PER MONTH TO EITHER VIDEOTAPE CEMETERIES (Homeplaces, etc.) OR DO LOOK-UPS OF INFORMATION IN THE COUNTY or area of a COUNTRY (IF OTHER THAN U.S.A.) THEY LIVE WHETHER OR NOT THEY HAVE ANCESTRAL TIES. Because the idea is that a person can spare one time per month to go out into the area they live to unselfishly provide information to another far from home, this makes volunteering and giving of oneself much easier-it also means that if we can obtain one person living in each county of the United States, as well as folks from other countries, to volunteer for this once per month, our odds of obtaining what we need anywhere we need to look go up tremendously!
