    3. The Family Tree Maker Home Page has a new option called GenealogyLibrary.com. I BELIVE there is one free search, otherwise there is a monthly fee or a $40.00/year search fee. It's big plus is that it has hundreds of books with a searchable database and is adding three new books a day. Right away I hit pay dirt on my Kygers in Clinton County, Indiana. Marriage index and supplemental marriage index (showing parents). Some birth and death notices. Some new Kygers to me, obviously in my family, but not noted by previous researchers. Neat! I checked KIGER for Joan and turned up 183 hits on marriages (a few deaths and births. Mostly Fountain County (1848-1920), some Boone (1850-1922), Benton (1850-1922), Floyd (1845-1920), Allen (1824-1920), Hendricks (1823-1919), Franklin (1850-1920), Bartholomew (1850-1920). The only mention of Clinton County Kigers were actually my Kygers. In the book, 'History of Wayne County, Indiana' there is a bit about The Methodist Episcopal Church in Hagerstown formed in the spring of 1840 where one of the preachers' name was John Kiger. Other books mentioning Kigers also noted. Maggie
