Just to keep folks aware of how things are progressing with Family Search indexing. Several of us have started getting Dawes county in the 1900 census pages to index the last day or two, and fewer from Custer county (maybe it's done now). If you can spare an hour or two, come do a couple pages. It'll help make more records available for everybody to use (and most of the material will be free as the indexing is completed. There will be some record repositories that want to retain ownership rights & sell the copies of things like certificates, and such, but the kind of indexes we're doing are going to be such a great help!!!) Just as anybody is going to be able to use the indexes when they're done & access records, anybody can do the indexing. Membership in the Mormon Church isn't required. All you need is a computer with internet access and the willingness to come help. Some of the folks at the Greater Omaha Genealogical Society meeting the other night reported that they've each done a lot of pages to help make more records available so that we can all find more ancestors. And it is exciting to see the progress. Karen ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
