While visiting the Easton Library on Satruday, Sharon the Marx Room librarian mentioned that the Easton Library is putting the Indexes to the Church Records found in the Marx room on the web. She mentioned that I should spread the word like I did for the online Obit index. They are currently up to letter K at this time, but plan to finish the rest of the index in about a month.

I am not associated with the Easton Library and cannot answer any questions about the collection or why you can see it in your browser, if there is a problem..
