(address listed below) http://www.hometown.aol.com/dennisvcarter1/myhomepage/business.html ----------------------------------------------- The website boasts:(Directly quoted from his website) <"Order a photocopy of any page for $1.50 per copy!!!" "Disclaimer! This webpage is not associated with the LDS Family History Library or any Family History Center, nor does it have any connection with or endorsement by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Disclaimer! Although many of the books listed below are currently copyrighted material, and may be for many more years, the law allows for "fair use," so whatever that legally means is for you to decide as most lawyers can't agree on the meaning of "fair use." My job is to do what you hire me to do... the look ups and the photocopying and you are responsible for what you own. All items listed on this webpage have item numbers assigned by the LDS Family History Library. Descriptive titles do not always match the film/fiche title listed in the FHL Catalog. If you'd like to see a detailed description of any item listed here you'll need to go to http://www.familysearch.org/ and click the Library tab at the top of that page and enter the item number. The exact entry or correct page number will be needed... please don't expect me to spend hours searching through unindexed pages for your surname as that is NOT what a lookup is... that is defined as research. Research is available on an hourly basis and a schedule of rates are posted on my webpage... the link to my webpage is at the bottom of this page, please feel free to visit it and examine it. Prices Oct-Apr are $1.50 per photocopy Prices May-Sep are $1.75 per photocopy Personal checks are accepted and may need to be held 7-10 days to clear both banks for new clients first time. Money Orders, Cashiers and bank checks, and cash are all gladly accepted. All orders will be shipped within three business days (Tue through Sat) of payment, not counting major holidays. Please send an adequate sized SASE (self addressed stamped envelope) with the correct postage to: Dennis V Carter, Genealogist Rt 2 Box 113-10 Alamo TX 78516 Please feel free to e-mail any questions to me at [email protected] If you send an e-mail address to have your order confirmed you will be advised the day your order ships by an e-mail. The McAllen Texas Family History Center (a 25 mile round trip drive for me) is where all of the microfiche and microfilm are stored and photocopied. A basic table of contents for this page is as follows: A. Order a photocopy of any page for $1.50 per copy (this beginning section you are now reading) B. Locality and Subject section of microfilms and microfiche (basically in alphabetical order by country and subject, so the United States begins roughly in the middle of this long list. The US has a seperate section on the 1861-1865 Civil War that begins before a listing of states.) C. Surname section of microfilms and microfiche (suggestion: you may want a photocopy of the index first and later decide just which pages you'd like copied) D. Links to related sites... (my webpage tells about books i've authored, my background, genealogical qualifications, and research rates) Looking for a shortcut? Use your Ctrl+f keys to search for a name or a locality and be taken there in less than a second." > (--------------------------------------------- Dianne, I am suprised to see that copies of copyrighted materials owned by the LDS Family History Library are being advertised for sale on your site. I am under the impression that this sale of copyrighted materials for profit is against the law. The librarians who work in the Family History Libraries, which are found around the country, are being told by the Salt Lake Family History Library not to allow copying of entire records/books/manuscripts lent out by them to patrons, because of this very thing. Making a profit off the backs of another's hard work is the lowest form of thievery. I suggest you check out this site if you have ever donated any materials you compiled to the Church fo Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints Family History Library, because these people are probably selling it for $1.50 per page. Charlene PS: www.familysearch.org has Personal Ancestral File for compiling your genealogical information FOR FREE! Anyone can visit their family history library page and get a list of what is in the LDS Library in Salt Lake City. It costs 15 cents per microfische to borrow from them. Once you look at the microfische and see if it is what you want, you can copy each page for 25-50 cents per page yourself, or you can send for copies from pages of the books directly. Film and book information is also available. Please be careful what you buy on the internet. ----------------------------- Original Message: >From: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [ILWAYNE-L] Lookups: Genealogy Look Ups Date: Fri, 1 Nov 2002 >00:19:36 EST > >hi, > Anyone wanting photocopies from the following LDS Family History >Library >microfiche and microfilms: > > Civil War-Illinois >1401524 Livingston County Soldier's Discharge Records 1865-1945 (see IL >item1) >6082244 Four years with Morgan and Forrest (see CSA) >6082405 K F Peddicord of Quirk's Scouts: Morgans Kentucky Cavalry CSA (see >OH) >6082544 Camp and Prison Journal Embracing Scenes in Camp...
