We lost a genealogy treasure with the death of Carol (and Frank) Rademacher. The Rademachers began the genealogy revival in Franklin and Hamilton Counties by transcribing all the early census records (before computers) and publishing "Phillips and Kin". It was because of their work and the availability of records that we were able to amass the Webb genealogy through the Webb Workshops back in the 1990s.....that genealogy now includes most families in Franklin County. (Sheldon and I decided back then that we might as well do the "whole" county as everyone was so inter-related.) I believe that Carol and Frank donated their copyrights to the Frankfort Area Genealogy Library.
