You can't read the headstones but you can nearly smell the air and hear the birds. Which is the reason for the site, actually.... you can go birding while you're at it.

    1. [WIGEN-L] Thanks Nance!
    2. Hello all: Just wanted to publicly thank Nance Sampson for getting me copies of the pages pertaining to my Pierce County from some very old books that I didn't have access to here in Washington State. We were both in the Wednesday night chat when I mentioned I was looking for somewhere to get these books on interlibrary loan when Nance said she was going to her local Historical Society the next day and would check on them for me. Lo and behold, this morning I received an email from her saying she had not only located one book, but two and made copies of the pertinent pages for me. I can't thank Nance enough for her efforts or Tina for setting up and hosting the Wednesday night chats. Without either, I may never have found these books, both which have been out of print for over 100 years. Don't miss out on such a wonderful resource these chats have afforded we CC's. It's the perfect opportunity to share information and ideas, and find the occasional angel like Nance! Debbie Barrett http://www.rootsweb.com/~wipierce/ http://www.rootsweb.com/~nywashin/
