    3. Thanks, Connie. I have noted your name/address, as I presume someone in VA has also done. I will pass along whatever I come to know ASAP. As should all, please understand that the Society (of which I know precious little from this distance) must decide a) if it will gain the permission of the county and 2) if it wishes to move on the project. If it does, it needs but call a meeting (and a committee, Lord forbid :) and determine the FIRST steps to be taken or tell us it will NOT do so. If not, we all can go home. If it does, it needs to commence the task. I say again that all who have abstracted records, seen to the filming of such, written and published the results perfectly understand that the processes of gathering the materials and making preliminary decisions as to WHAT to publish (print or net) and WHO it is that will be the boss and who will do this and that work are NOT rocket science. We now simply need to hold our advice, offer money for that express purpose - as we have - and await a call by those powers-that-be. Paul
