Rosemarie, you will have to show me in August when we meet. They may have digital copies, but I do not know if they are searchable. I haven't had the time to do any, but I know people who volunteer. They get a file, say 20-30 names at a time, and they read the record and on another screen they t

I have a hard time with this. This information is online already and free for everyone. Ancestry will charge you to get it. You can only get info from them (that you have given them already) by being a member and paying that yearly fee. Thank goodness for the other cite for those who cannot
