I am a bit overloaded but I'm pleased to say that Betty Shinn is adding the articles to her website (http://bettyshinn.com) so they may be available soon. MaryLu Mezt is also transcribing them (Bless her!) and Betty will then add the transcriptions to her website saving her a lot of space over the image files. With a little luck, all 28 articles will be available soon. I am continuing to read he articles myself and will continue to keep a look out for the names I have collected. Thanks for all the interest. I'm so pleased that I have been able to help my fellow researchers.

All who are interested in the Historical Sketches can view three of them at: http://bettyshinn.com The rest will be added as they are transcribed.

I noticed that you copyrighted the Historical Sketches. Very wise business decision. That way no one can submit them to another website or use them for profit.
