<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">I haven't found any way to pick a specific location, I am thinking there might be a back door to that through my "group" but I haven't made contact with them yet to know for a fact. It seems to me like it would make sense for us to do our own area, for example I would know what a lot of the names really are even in a marginally legible local census page. Of course if I index a name with the correct spelling and the arbitrator decides I have read it wrong that won't help, but still. I have spent so much time fishing in so many parts of Oregon though it seems like I almost always know what I am reading. I had two on the last page tonight that were a complete mystery to me. Homer Amorvin or something like thay and Worlein or maybe Moveim or ??. I did three or four pages of K falls so far one in Hood river and one each Portland and Dixonville and 2?
