Hello Everyone: So many new and exciting things are being added to the Clinton County website (the url is below). We have people working on things all over the place and sharing their work with us. We have added a few more family outlines -- plus Mike Kearney is working on compiling information about prominent families such as the Curtis, Young, and Lamb families. A lady from Florida sent me pages 323-487 of the 1879 history to put online. We have added several photos to our Tombstone Gallery and I have many more to go. So many, in fact, it has prompted me to redo the cemetery pages! Eventually, each cemetery list will have links to photos and obituaries. Some of you have written to ask if we'd like photos of individual headstones -- the answer to this is 'Yes, of course'! And obits too, if you have them < grin>. Remember the neat bible submitted by Jean regarding the Spanish American War? Well, Lynn has a similar bible and sent us scans of hers too!! There is also a bit of a diary telling where they went and such. He even mentions returning to camp "Red Tape" -- who knew they had red tape in 1898? You can also take a bit of a tour of the Clinton County Historical Society. My son and I took pictures there last September. Things have changed a bit, but if you can't stop in, this is the next best thing. All these things are mentioned on our "What's New" page. Some other things I am working on include adding more tombstone photos and links to obits; continueing the 1860 census transcriptions; getting info from the 1875 Andreas Atlas online and more of the civil war 'Roster and Record'. I hope you will all stop by soon and often and see what's new. If you have any additions or corrections to make, please let me know -- I'll get them done eventually. I also welcome your suggestions on what might make the site better or easier to navigate and what you would like to see more of online. Have a wonderful day and stay out of the heat -- The More We Share, The More We Have To Share Nettie Mae <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~iaclinto/">Clinton County Iowa Gen Web</A> www.rootsweb.com/~iaclinto/ <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ia/clinton/clinton.htm">Clinton County, IAGenWeb Archives Table of Contents</A> http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ia/clinton/clinton.htm www.rootsweb.com/~iaphotos/ IA State Census Project www.iagenweb.org/census/
