Hi list, The listing for the Wash. Co. Historian that says no emails accepted is an old one. You might want to Google Wash. Co. NY and choose the first website that comes up. There is a list stating what is available for research ,a few data bases and how to apply fo help . I don't mind folks using email for a couple of questions, but, if in depth research is requested, we have a $15.fee. I have some directories, one only for 1926 and then the rest of the collection is in the 40's and up. I'll try to post the ones available next Tues. or Weds. the only days my office is open. Feel free to write if there is anything I can help you with.

Hi, Loretta, How goes the summer? In the Goodspeed Collection I noticed the names PENDERGAST, REED, REID, and REARDON. What references might there be to this group? Ann
