    1. [NCRUTHER-L] W. D. Floyd Record on CD

    3. This is just a little off base but you are the ones that can give me the feed back. Just to make a long story short, our genealogy society is needing to generate some cash. Had I not have made all my records free, like they should be, and let the society publish books on them they would probably be doing alright financially. I am proposing to put all my databases and cemetery records on a CD and letting the society sell the CD's. The CD would give the owners the ability to pull up every record that I have on my website on any surname at anytime they wanted. I us. MS-Works since it comes alreadyloaded on a big majority of PC's. This would eliminate the tedious task of going to each cemetery survey and checking for ancestors. I will probably place all the .jpg photos that I have of Rutherford Co., NC records on it also. In a nutshell, everything that I have available at this time. I am thinking on the order of $35 bucks for the CD. I need some feedback on the feasibility of th! is since I havn't even mentioned it to the society as of yet. Let me here your thoughts on this. Please excuse me for using the lists since it isn't exactly genealogy and it is a little commercial but it is not to fatten my own wallet and it surely is the place to see if it will work. Thanks, Bill
