Bill, I live in Renton Washington (suburb of Seattle) & don't remember how I found the NYCAYUGA site. It was some time ago & could have been the result of a Google search or I meandered there from somewhere on Cyndislist.com. I get email from a lot of rootsweb sites. Newly retired, I'm planning to take a trip this summer to Wisconsin to do more research & then on to Cayuga county for the first time where I hope to see Victory, Sterling, Oswego, etc., & work on my Timerson brick wall. There have been a number of posts lately regarding where to go to look for records, what times the facilities are open, and so on, which are extremely helpful in planning such a trip. This is a great list!
