Done Deal... If you have any 'stories' about Myrtle, it would be great to add to the site... If you would like to share them, please let me know. Your surnames will be online this afternoon, on the new surname pages. Thanks!!

Coleen, You are a wonder!! I have received the copies of the death, marriage and birth records. One question. I am just a tad bit hesitant about the birth records. I haven't read through everything I received today, but if those folks are still living, I wouldn't feel comfortable putting those docs on line. I might do the names, and dates, no years, and other info, but for the rest, I would feel better if I knew if they were still with us. I usually use the 1910 cut-off date for stuff like that. Let me know.... And thanks again!! Lorraine
