Hi All I thought I would let you know that the "elves" have been busy adding to the LaGrange website. Thanks to Stacie, the information from the graduating class of 1910 is on the website. I added a listing of WWII Army mortalities and a list of LaGrange County cemeteries complete with links to the burial listings of the cemeteries already on the site. I have been given a short list of items available at the Local History section of the LaGrange library and will be adding that soon along with a list of early settlers in the area being sent to me by Barbara Henderson. Pati Blowers May has sent me a roster of the 44th Regiment from the Civil War, a cemetery transcription and has been busy posting information to the GenConnect Boards (copies of which now show up on this list). I will be adding these things to the website over the next few days, so keep an eye out for them. Have a Great Weekend! Patti and her busy "elves"
