http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~aldrich/george/index.htm more than 500 added. I haven't added those from the emails yet. Faster if they are already in gedcoms and sent to me virus-free attached. If you are sending gedcoms, be sure they are not ancestral type. Descendant format is preferred for this type of database. Do not add anyone already in database. Only those from the starting person (ancestor) and descending from that one person already in database. This will make the merges easier. I reserve the right to edit the information to conform to the format set in the database. No ?? in surname space places spelled out in full, county included if known. No "co. or county" please. Place names are as followed: , Mendon, Worcester, Massachusetts not Mendon, Worcester, Massachusetts for church - list the full name of the church if possible. If not include in the notes so I can modify. For the name of cemetery, list like this: Swansdale Cemetery, Mendon, Worcester, Massachusetts. This will go long way in reducing my time editing to fit overall database. The database itself when completed can be converted to book with ease. Hence the need for overall format standard. W.
