Listers, The best possible news for Jefferson County researchers! Gus Rogers, whom many of you know from his helpful answers to listers' queries, together with his daughter Ellen and her husband John Bartlett, the Gravestone Scribes, have made available to the GenWebSite, their impressive work on the cemeteries of Jefferson County. The first one, a small sample, can be seen at http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyjeffer/bartlett.htm They have done 17 books in all, and they are sending them to the website electronically, which means we do no formatting or copying. It's a fantastic gift, both to us and to the genealogical community. John assures us that hard copies are still available from instone@aol.com This is a work in progress. They are still working, at the rate of one town a year, on the remaining 5 towns. All three of them have been staunch supporters of free genealogy, and they have certainly underlined their convictions with this gift. To those who wonder how we managed to persuade them to give us their work, you should know we never asked. This is their initiative. Thank yous can be sent to Gus at staero@gisco.net and John and Ellen at instone@aol.com Fantastic! Nan Dixon, listmaster -- http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyjeffer/
