My motivation has been the steady growth in popularity of the Genealogytrails websites. I started tracking statistics on it about a year and half ago, and at the time, the average visits to the site per day were 2-3 visits, of about a minute average length. When I send out an update like this one, it causes a big spike in the statistics, but
then it settles down to "normal" again. But normal is now about 14 people day, with an average time on the site of 15 minutes!<br><br>Here's the list of what's been put online for December and January - my thanks too the people who have provided me with material to use for
these updates (you know who you are!) and I still have a lot more to turn into web pages, so watch for more updates soon. I hope you find something for each of your families from Coos county!<br><br><font face="Arial">1) New <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://genealogytrails.com/ore/coos/census/1855_Jury.html">1855 Jury List</a> provided by Andie Jensen.
