    3. Is there anything that I can do online to help? I don't drive and can't make it up to Scranton, but I'd be glad to help via the computer. Best wishes, Lynda Jones Bloomsburg, PA _____ .

In early June, I completed the first pass though the microfilm which contains the Vol. 1 of the index covering from Oct. 1885 to Dec. 31, 1914. [ It took me 3 years to type.] This represents 1,978 pages of information, or about 108,000 marriages. While I would love to add it to the USGenWeb project ASAP, the work needs to be audited before the spouses are matched and the information posted. I'm almost halfway through the audits and am uncovering records that will need to be checked by reviewing the actual application to resolve discrepancies, but I will continue to work these bugs out so that an accurate index can be posted to the web. I'm expecting the audit processes to last a minimum of six more months, based upon the time available to work on the project. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mary Bradley" <jordancummingssearch@yahoo.com> To: <oneinfo@ptd.net> Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2007 9:18 PM Subject: Hello Mr. Reese : Hello Mr. Reese, : : My name is Mary Bradley and I have seen your name on the Marriage Index info on the Lackawanna Board. : : I read somewhere, and unfortunately I can't remember where, but that you had added some marriage records to your research. : : If I remember correctly, you said it was completed and you were waiting to add it to the Board.

    3. Thank you for the offer. At this point it still needs someone to recheck against the microfilm documents, either the index reels or the marriage applications. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lynda L.
