    3. Margaret, That sounds like a plan. I would like to get together with you, too. I work, from 8 to 2 or so at the senior center in Carmi, which is downtown and a block from the courthouse, and the about the same distance from the genealogy library. After that I come to my home office and do accounting until I'm too tired to work. I'm a big fan of the genealogy library, it has so much available. They have an obit index that is wonderful, and many surname files. From the courthouse the thing I have found most useful are the file boxes of probates. All the little slips of paper and listings of activity, and information that you just can't find elsewhere. They are in the circuit clerks office. The library is open Tuesday-Friday from 11:30 to 4:30, so coming Tuesday or Wednesday would be best for me. Come to the senior center for lunch and then I could run over to the library and get you started. If you have Norris City or Grayville people the libraries in those towns are good, and you never know what you might find in the genealogy section of the Carmi library. The public library is working on their family history section, it was pushed to a corner when they opened their new building and who knows what was lost. What cemeteries are you looking for? There have been several readings done, and there are some at the library never published. Lecta and Diane can help you there. I can check out some cemeteries but have a lot of work duties the first week of the month at the center, and have several tax returns due 10/15. You have heard that the New Harmony bridge is closed, so that adds about 10 miles to the one way trip. Such a mess.
