Yes, I joined; in fact I sprung (sprang?) for the $100 life membership, to honor their work. I was impressed with former Librarian Fola Bevan and the late Jack Kelley (who copied and indexed gads of Millville data from Vineland h.s. and other places). The few times I've managed to get over to Millville in the past year or two, I've found Bob Francoise and Mimi ____ volunteering. They appear to have capably filled gaps left by Fola's relocation and Jack's death, but I'm sure there are others whom I haven't yet met, or who volunteer behind the scenes. Yes, the 6 hours a week are limiting, but they have few vol's, who are helping staff the County h.s. at Greenwich also. If you phone the City's main number, 856-825-7000, they relay a message to the vol's, who may then let you know if someone is going to be there outside of those 6 hours. I live in Delaware also (Kent County) so if you can either get a Wednesday afternoon off or clear half a Sunday, we could drive over together for their 1 to 4 hours. One more Millville tip: don't miss the public library's local history room, just inside the door, and their microfilm collections of vital stat's and old newspapers. This gives us junior-historians something to do when MHS is not open.
