Howdy:
At the meeting for the Volunteers for the new Family History Center
it was announced that due to the Marin County Fair, the Center
will be closed on Thursday and Friday this week.
Volunteers are not to report for their shift again until next week.
For those of you interested in using the Family History Center,
give us a bit more time to complete our Volunteer training
before coming to use the center. There will be an announcement
when we are more ready to serve you.
If you are interested in Vol
I had heard about the award too and am just delighted for Jana. She is a most
talented writer and I have enjoyed everything she has contributed to the Kin
Tracer. I haven't yet read this article but understand it is quite
instructional and well as great reading.

Sigh!!!!!! So did a lot of us. They need someone to come from Salt Lake
and take charge of the project. The one that was here has gone on a
mission. Doesn't look like anything will happen soon.

Along Those Lines: "A Summer Reading List"
by George G. Morgan
=====================================================================
Each year about this time I come up with a list of some of the better
books I've come across in the last few months that I think you might
enjoy reading when you may have some leisure time. Maybe you're lucky
enough to have a porch swing or a hammock to relax in, or maybe you
slather yourself with SPF 4
Lauren, June 17th must be a zoo in your family....unless all celebfrate at once and together! That is amazing!
Thanks fofr the most interesting CIG presentation. Seeing those sites, bigger than life, above our heads is awe inspiring!
Maybe a sub-talk, before the central one, could be how to really connect your laptop to those bays (or whatever they are called) in the round-table at the MCF room at Hangar 5. There seemed to be a lot of different opinions about how it all goes together. Anyone join

Hrmmmmm.... no wonder this one won! I remember Jana sharing details
of the mysterious disappearence of her grand aunt as they began to reveal
themselves in 1998. 'Tis a tasty story indeed. Full of juicy bits. And she tells
it well. I look forward to seeing a copy of the winning article. I would hope they
will run some of the wonderful photos Jana has to compliment it. It would be great
if they could also include a photo of Jana and her cousin, reunited after all
these years and 2 generation
There were some posts about a new Family History Library opening here in
Marin. How is it coming along? I volunteered online to be trained to
work as a volunteer, but haven't heard a word.

Does the "not anything happening soon" include donating stuff? Is there a

I'm afraid not, Emelie :-(
Sorry, but I missed the original message regarding the training. When is it
and how do I see if I can fit in volunteering with my schedule?
Thanks, Kathy

(blush) why thank you for noticing Lauren! Yes, it is all very exciting!
It is my first attempt to "put the flesh on the bones of my skeleton"
with success. The article is planned to be in the Sept/Oct. issue of
Ancestry magazine, but the details are not yet complete.
Meanwhile, I highly recommend the process to you all. Telling my story
in an way that would not bore readers in under 3000 words was a *real*
challenge! I ended up four words short after many many revisions and

My grand daughter notified me today that she had found a virus someone had
attached to her computer. The virus attached to everyone in her address book
and to her C drive.
She taught me how to check for the virus and how to get rid of it.
I did find the virus on my C drive. Since you are in my address book, you
will probably find it in your computer too. The virus is not detected by Norton
or McAfee. The virus sits quietly for 14 days before damaging the system.

I had a call last night from Rex Gardener, who is now the Director of the Family History Center in the making at the LDS Church, San Pedro Road, San Rafael.
He appologized for the short notice but asked me to get out the word that the training for volunteers for the Family History Center will be held this Wednesday night (June16th) at 7:00 p.m. at the LDS Church, 220 North San Pedro Road, San Rafael. All who have been waiting to volunteer....here is your chance.
If you plan on attending, would you pleas
Thanks for all your kind words! Lauren, I agree with you regarding
Ancestry - I have contacted the "person in charge" and am waiting for a
reply. Carl has his "walking papers" to be "on vacation" the week Jim
and Rosey are here and I have the camera ready. My USA cousins (children
of Dad's brother) are all coming up to camp in the orchard and all the
family agrees that while Grama and Edie likely had their own reunion
upon Grama's death, none of us doubt their hand in finally accomplishing
the reunion. Now
I hope to be there Weds evening. Harry Sutcliffe

Hi Susan,
I'm on the mailing list for MGS, and noticed your email address,
