How about somewhere near a major airline hub, so that the air fares would be cheaper for all. i.e.: Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Salt Lake City, Denver or Minneapolis. I was a travel agent for several years, so I know that flights in and out of these places are usually cheaper. If we did Salt Lake City (a major hub for Delta Airlines), in addition to it being a "hub", there is also the advantage of that fantastic research library that the LDS church has! Atlanta (another Delta Airlines Hub) has a National Archive Library. The other large cities probably have large genealogy libraries. Just food for thought! (Or perhaps fuel for the fire :-) ) Regards, Linda Peckham Scroggs (aka: [email protected])
