Yes, Sharon Washington Co. has some fine information on the web and at the library in Marietta.. Also if anyone is interested , I found by using Alice, the OU library online catalog, that they have some wonderful books , that I saw and used at the State Library of Virginia, last May and at the Allen County Library at Ft Wayne, Ind... 2 summers ago. It is really nice to know that Marietta and Athens have research material that our library does not have and are within reach.
