Debie, Josh, who is our Jefferson County CC, can tell you all about it .. (The Josh of the note I forwarded). I know it to be a very fine organization that promotes genealogical organizations. I wrote my representatives tonight to urge them to accept this generous offer. Josh could you tell us all more about the FGS.
