    3. Hi List, Amy Denecke of New Jersey has offered to help me type my backlog of long articles and "Glances" or "Personals" columns from local papers (does anyone have any of these to submit??). Thank you Amy for the typing help! These articles will be organized by town name, date, and all pages will start with the year followed by the word "glances." So, as an example, a file name might be: belle-vernon-pa/1937_glances_belle-vernon-pa_weds-dec-8-1937-pg5.htm I've added this recently: Ghost Towns: Stringtown - Another 'Ghost' of Civil War Mining Days in Monon. Valley District* (Note: *Monongahela Valley District) From the Charleroi Mail newspaper, Charleroi PA April 1, 1938, page 1 and page 6, Typed by Volunteer, Amy Denecke. This Stringtown PA seems to have been a location in Allegheny County, not the one still near Carmichaels PA... If anyone knows differently, let me know. If you have information about an old town that no longer exists, send me a write up. These town articles are in the "Town Talk" pages in on the "family" URL (see my signature line). Also, on Sandy's marriage notices collection, I made a mistake back in May and left out 2 pages of Johnston grooms (all pages listed by grooms now), but I think I got those Johnston pages straight tonight. Note: most marriage pages only have names/ dates so far, but I continue to add images and content as I or Sandy get the notices typed. You should check weekly if you're looking for one to appear. Content is added on a random basis, not in order of names. I've just put up some names in the I, J, and K sections. Some persons in these weddings were from PITTSBURGH or ALLEGHENY CO or from GREENE CO PA areas. I thought we'd have these up by Dec., but I'm revising that date-- maybe by April 2008 we'll have all 3,000 marriages and divorces posted. I've added some more of Vicki's photos in the McDonald PA section. And some of Vicki's photos of Reverends and Churches on the "religions" URL. I'll soon be adding some more W names to the list of James Chapel U.M. Cemetery on the PAGenWeb. These names were skipped in what was sent to me before. And lastly, if you do send me articles, images, or other submissions, *please* send me the typed transcript as well. I spend 5 to 7 hours or more almost every day either typing articles or putting together web pages, but I'm still behind and have about 30Gig of data waiting to be typed (plus what I have on paper). I'm also tired--lol--so submitters need to type the items they send from now on. If anyone else wants to volunteer to type, I'd appreciate the help. Thanks again to Amy for stepping up and offering her assistance.
