Cousins, I would like to include in the Newsletter some helpful hints on almost anything. Categories such as: House hold hints: Painting, Gardening, Cooking etc. Genealogy hints: Files, Pictures, Data Bases. How do you set up your files or are they all over the floor like mine. Have you written that book yet? If so give the rest of us some advice on how to start and get organized. Do you keep hard copies or do you put everything on disk? What is the best way to back up ones files that work for you? Remember this is for the newsletter and any helpful hint, genealogy or not, will be appreciated as well as comments. We all have comments I don't recall at the meetings that the rooms were silent.:-) Have any questions that some cousin may be able to answer? Send them to me and I will put them in the newsletter. I need family recipes along with short stories as to who, why and when you use this recipe also include a picture of the recipe and or person who passed on the recipe. You can send a paper picture by scanning one or making a copy at you local library, drug store or grocery store. Just send them to me jmolitz@cox.net If you want my home address just email me if you have something you want to send by hard copy. Hurry Cousin Julia
