[HistoricCemeteries] Proposed OR House Bill 2093 closes all Vital records for 125 years

[W David Samuelsen]

I forwarded the information to Federation of Genealogical Societies. 
They have active "Record Preservation Committee", dealing with this 
issue in several states.

Have you posted to another mailing list - 
or-roots at listsmart.osl.state.or.us ?

Count on them to raise the alarm.
