Hello fellow listers, I've got myriad early ancestors from MA and RI...some who came in the 1600's and stayed...some who left. I'd really like to have some sources at my disposal for research on them. I've seen many of you refer to NEHGS sources. I'd really love to have some feedback as to the practicality of a non-local person joining that organization. What are the costs to join, and would I benefit from it, living far away? Or, are there some basic reference books that can be purchased through them that would benefit me almost as well? Any input from those of you who are members would be so appreciated. Thanks, Leslie in UT Go to www.qualityquotes.com for great gift-giving ideas! _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
