Just think of the time and expense they have saved you. I know that they don't charge much more for the books than their cost of publishing them. I guess we owe all those volunteers not just the book compliers but the volunteers that work at the genealogical society a big thank you. Without them the information wouldn't be as readily available to us all. Vicky Stozich
