The Harrison County Genealogical Society held their regular monthly meeting this date in the downstairs of the Waldomore. There were 8 members in attendance. One new member that joined last month was with us and he is Harold Reed, and we want to welcome him and help him anyway that we can. David said that we would not be taking a Spring trip to Washington, DC as there is not enough interest at this time. A December, 2012 newsletter has not been prepared and David said, they are talking about putting out a Spring issue having it prepared for mailing through Pre Sort of Fairmont, WV. Diana needs help getting the newsletter ready for print, if there are any volunteers to help her, please contact her at djhcgh@gmail.com We have been asked about the pedigree charts and Barbara Palmer has them and is proof reading them and David said he had not heard from her to see how she was coming along with them. The scholarship applications have been delivered to the high schools of Harrison County and the date for them to be back in is April 20th. Susan House, David Houchin and Ted Wolfe is the committee that will be reading them and they will be meeting on May 4th, probably before and after the regular meeting to select a winner of the scholarship. David has ordered a book, American Publication before the census of 1790. Should be a very interesting book. The roof is being replaced on the Waldomore and it is very badly needed. When the roof is done they will replace the wiring. David and Ted will be going to the Ritchie County Fair on April 27th. Ted is going to see if he can reserve a pavilion at Norwood Park again this year for our annual picnic. He is going to try and get Monday, August 12th and that way David will be able to attend the picnic. April is the month for election of officers and we voted to return the same slate of officers as we now have. The next meeting will be the 4th of May and David will let us know if the meeting will be upstairs or downstairs. There is a lot of work to getting a roof on the Waldomore.
