Lynda - I'm in northern Lincoln County, just south of Wesson - Will be glad to work with you during summer on transcription. I did the index in Copiah courthouse for the loose will files, and also did one on an old land record book. I work during day (middle school), but you can call me at night for next two weeks. After that, I'll be home during the day.

I would also like to volunteer. My school year ends June 12th and I could work on it full time after that. Marti - Are these indexes that you mentioned available on-line? I live in the Chicago suburbs and have not been able to visit Copiah Co. but I would love to find wills for my Ainsworth and Ellis families who were among the early settlers.
