Hello List Members, I agree 100%. there is more to Genealogy than names and dates. Items from the newspapers reflect life, as it was lived during that time period. It is especially interesting , when the prices are indicated. The names of the stores and the industries are important clues in Genealogy. If our ancestors did not own the stores, at least we know they did business there. I do not think we should be so critical of someone who takes their time to type the information for all of us to see. It does NOT appear by way of magic.
