Hi,
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to donate their old genealogy books to me. I am looking to open a genealogy library in California after I receive my masters in Library Science. (probably at least 4 years from now). Also, if anyone wants to send their family pedigrees or history to me that would be great too!
