As for the fair - have we considered inviting any of the other area genealogy groups to participate either as presenters or with a display table? I know that I have roots that cross quite a few county lines. With the way the WV counties came into exisitance, some references to or from some of the other groups would be great. Sharing resources makes it easier on everyone.
