I'll add my opinion to the thread ....... How disappointing that the decision was made to remove the Bell County research information from the web site. It is surprising that a public organization intended for the collection and dissemination of historical information would discourage such a valuable research resouce tool. It's my belief that the postings would have encouraged additional support for the BCHC through donations as well as sales of publications. It is evident from the e-mail on this list that there is considerable interest in the history of Bell County. My recommendation is that those of us who have our own Bell County material, submit it for posting and keep a useful genealogical resource alive.
