Hi, I'm the secretary of the Fayette Co.Genealogical Society. Our meeting in April is on the 17th at 1 PM at the Uniontown Library. Our speakers for the day are two men who are plotting the GPS reading of the original National Road. You are welcome to join us. I'm sure at least one of our members can help you with any research. The curator of the PA Room, Vicki, is very knowledgeable about the area and what she has to offer you. Joanne

Ellen, Just a post script to your conversation with Ed. The formal name of the Newspaper is The Herald Standard, the paper is online and does post it's obits. (http://www.heraldstandatd.com) I receive the paper by e-mail daily, I live out of state and enjoy scanning the area news. We all appreciate that Ed is keeping himself busy with his worth while work. Although, it would be even nicer if the Obits were recorded and maybe posted once a week or twice a month for those that are interested. The site address could be included. It would be great to have the obit information posted in a quick easy to read format. Maybe something like the Census. Then one could use their Internet Explorer to Edit/find specific names being sought. Time is at such a premium for most researchers, retired or not. The deleting process is very time consuming.
