Lonny, Thanks for that information. -----Original Message----- From: Lonny J. Watro [mailto:lwatro@atlanticbb.net] Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2005 7:42 AM To: WVMINERA-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [WVMINERA] Introduction BTW, there is a Geneology Society in Keyser and a Historical Society in Keyser. I think Patti McDonald is working with one or both. She should be able to tell you where to send your documents. Even if you can't find anyone who wants the information now, someone might come looking for it in the future. You might want to snail mail it to the Geneology Society and the Historical Society for future generations who come searching for their Stanley's later in time.
