Summer is on the way! It's a great time to get out and walk cemeteries, take photos of headstones, churches, historical sites, visit with county recorders and clerks, and transcribe records. All of the great information and photos you collect can find a home on an IAGenWeb county or project. So can you if you become a county coordinator. It's not necessary to live in Iowa to be a coordinator - just a love of Iowa's genealogy and the desire to help others. New coordinators are needed for *GREENE,* *LUCAS,* *MONROE,* *WEBSTER,* & *WAPELLO *counties. They can all be visited at http://iagenweb.org/state/colist.php . Read more about becoming a county coordinator at http://iagenweb.org/state/primer.htm . Looking forward to hearing from you soon!
