<DIV><FONT size=3>If you want it indexed, perhaps those who are asking for a
family biography would be willing to index that section. I'd certainly
be willing to index the Ames family
biography.</FONT></DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>Sue,</DIV>
<DIV>That would be great. Because, as you know, so many of these older books
with</DIV>
<DIV>great stories about the people were not indexed - a genealogists
nightmare. And,</DIV>
<DIV>this book has a wonderful amount of information about Sweet Home.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Let's keep that in mind. We'll see just how many requests I get. And
then, I would</DIV>
<DIV>be left to index the rest. There are stories about many people in the
rest of the book, </DIV>
<DIV>too. The biographies take up about 94 of the 201 pages of the book.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I would love to do it -- even love to sit right down and read the book.
However, as you</DIV>
<DIV>probably know from this list, I am up to my eyebrows trying to document
and save</DIV>
<DIV>an historic cemetery from "road destruction".</DIV>
