Howdy Y'all!! *waving* This is just a little reminder that the voting deadline is tonight, Tuesday Oct.7, at 11:59pm. So send those votes to christe@aye.net and send em soon. *S* also... You may want to keep in mind that each County gets a vote... Therefore if you are CC for 2 counties then you get 2 votes. Pretty cool, huh? Keep in mind, when voting, to judge on layout,design, ease of navigation, special features... You know, the neat stuff. *S* If we judged by the quantity of biographies only, we know there would be no contest. This is a site contest, not a biography counting contest. I must say, I'm a little disappointed in CC participation, of our 20 adopted counties only 9 have voted. Come on guys vote.... PLEEEEESE! Remember... I'll send the winning County's name through by 15 minutes after midnight Thanks so much... and have a great evening..

Hi all, I'm the quilty one. That Bio-L message from Cindy Blum made the list by mistake. Sorry, Just delete it please. -- Scott Satterthwaite Huntington County InGenWeb Coordinator http://www.citznet.com/~ssattert/HiGenWeb.html Indiana Biographies Project Assistant State Coordinator http://www.aye.net/~dee1234/indybios/inbio2.html

I'm glad it isn't anything worse. I had already figured that you would not be in today. Things are fairly quiet except for Tessie's machine which is unusable. I've got on the Visual 5.0 machine a bit. I'm not going to try to move it. Would be better to have it up here for a day or so anyway if we are going to experiment with loading the data from vmfgdemo. What became of your last test on DNC?

Our library has a book which contains short biographies on most of the WWI vets from Fulton Co. It was compiled by the Fulton County Council of Defense (which as far as I can tell is defunct). I can find no date in the book to indicated when it was compiled and published, no publisher name. I would like eventually to put these on my bio page but don't want to get into a copyright hassle. Anyone have any suggestions? Some of these sketches contain family information which could be useful to people researching in Fulton, I hate to pass but have no idea how to track the origin of this book.

Greetings! The following bios were add to the Orange County Bio pages during the past week: Albert, John C. Bowles, Dr. Lewis S. Boyd, Jesse Braxtan, Thomas N. Braxtan, John H. Campbell, George W. Claxton, Thomas V. Clements, John G. Comingore, Henry Condor, Shadrach B. A. Cornwell, Edward Cox, Elizabeth Dougherty, George W. Farlow, Nathan M. Farrell, William Gabbert, William P.

The following bios were added to the Clay County page this week: George V. GOSHORN John J. GRABER G. Paris GRAY James S. GRAY Robert GUTHRIE No new bios have been added to the Greene County page yet. Does anyone have any suggestions of how we can get the word out for this so that we start getting bios submitted by other people? So far the only ones I have are ones that I've done myself. And with my schedule that means slim pickin's. Any ideas?

Gooooood Evening Everyone.... Four sites have already been nominated: Clay, Crawford, Huntington, and Lawrence Counties. There is only one position to fill. Come on, someone nominate a site so we can start voting. And remember when it is time to start the voting, be sure to judge on layout, design and ease of navigation. If we voted entirely on the basis of quantity of biographies we all know who would win. Have a great evening... Christe
