Idaho County is going strong. I currently have 3,318 files on the site. Haven't worked on it much this summer but recently have started updating the cemetery listings with photos. Stopped by Whitebird cemetery a few weeks ago and took over 400 headstone photos, so am editing them and getting them ready to add to the cemetery listings. Will take photos of Riggins this weekend on my trip up north and will be doing the same with them. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ididaho/Cemeteries/cemeteries_of_idaho_county.htm I have also added a clickable google map for the cemeteries that can be viewed in satellite view as well. This was a fun thing to do but had to get all the longitude/latitude settings for it. Some were already online, others I had help getting. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ididaho/Cemeteries/countymap.html My site still has an "old" block look to it and probably needs some updating. But I guess you just keep doing what you are comfortable with. Plus, I have so many pages now, it would be a huge undertaking to change the format. Something I might work on though. . . Have a bunch of military records and other stuff to work on as well. Should be some great things coming soon!

I would like to call attention to http://imnh.isu.edu/digitalatlas/# which has topo maps which hopefully will help make sites more user friendly. The comp plans will probably tell you how much of your county is public land -- they did for my counties. (ok, I confess, I'm a retired mapper & title officer) Sharon Gem, Valley, Boise Cos.
I added an old map of Idaho counties recently at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~idcanyon/graphics/1884.jpg courtesy of Google. I also found an Idaho history BLOG to link to at http://steunenberg.blogspot.com/ I'm looking forward to getting a chance to study that!

Teton County is alive and well. In the last month a new list of post offices in the County w/dates was added. Some improvements were made to the Surname registry (http://tetonid.genweb.us/main_teton_surnames.php), the Teton County Gazetteer (http://tetonid.genweb.us/detail_teton_county_gazetteer.php) and the Cemetery home page (http://tetonid.genweb.us/main_teton_cemeteries.php).

Many of you have email links to allow your visitors to reach the State Coordinator. That's a very good idea and will likely become a requirement within the project. But when the SC changes, it's a bit of a bother. At this point I am requesting that you change those links from the old email address of: seidahogenealogy@hotmail.com to the new SC email address of: sc@idgenweb.org At this point I don't yet have access to the Rootsweb accounts so I can't help with that process directly, but if you have any problems doing this, please yell and I will help indirectly. Note that I am going to pass on the domain and that email address to any successor as SC, so hopefully that will mean this sort of change will not be required again in the future.
