Dear Ruth and Vee! You have both have my thumbs up for school board meeting minutes. If the meetings are anything like the school district I worked for I am sure they will be lively! Also Ruth, I personally would love to hear about the Civil War. My family memories were destroyed in a fire in 1911. My GGrandpa William Myers' history as a Civil War Veteran from NY State is what originally got me fired up for genealogy. Regardless of which state the soldiers/sailors represented, I am sure that their thoughts and fears were the same. Jane in FL
