Texas is in
need of County Hosts. It is our hope that most, if not all, of
Texas' counties can have their own hosts, who can transcribe data
and upload it to the county's webpage. If interested -
please view our
Volunteer Information Page
and contact
Kim
(html knowledge and a
desire to transcribe data is required).
I would very much like to make you part of this project. If
you have information that you'd like to share about any town,
family, county or subject, please send it to us and we'll make sure
it gets posted to the right county. We are looking for
Biographies, Obituaries, Newspaper Stories, History and Family
stories. Email
