My friends - Today, we are resuming our review of the 1878 Vital Statistics birth records for Calloway County. Before moving to that, however, I want to update the List on the Graves County Order Book G page digitization process, as I know there is a lot of interest in that project. I am within about a week of completing the rework of the Index, which has proven to be more challenging than had been expected. When that is completed, I will then go back and check each page image to insure that all are present(with one or two exceptions, where the original page itself was missing or impossible to scan) and that the image quality is the best that can be achieved. Once that is completed, I will be ready to ask for several beta testers to assist me in assuring that the CD that will come out of all of this will be readable and workable. Please don't volunteer to be a tester yet, however - I will advise the List when we reach that point. But progress *is* being made, and I am still holding to the goal of having it completed by the end of this month. I worked on that project over this past weekend, which resulted in having no time to prepare and distribute a miscellaneous file, as had been my plan. Subscribers to the JP and Calloway lists can obtain the full dataset for a birth shown in the listing below by sending a request to me. These datasets usually include the gender of the child, if not obvious, the date of birth and the name of the father and maiden name of the mother, and the place of birth of each parent. Your continuing assistance in not resending this entire message back to me with the request is appreciated. Tomorrow, we will move back to Graves Co. -B ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Calloway County - Vital Statistics Records - Births - 1878 - Supplemental - Part 8-S (M)=Male (F)=Female (NGG)=No Gender Given Walters, Ella G.
