FROM SGS MEMBER MERILEE MULVEY:
“I was reading Dick Eastman’s Online Genealogy Newsletter and found this interesting article about Armenian historical materials being accepted by the NEGHS. I thought the membership might like to read it . . . don’t know if any of our members have Armenian ancestors, but it’s worth letting everyone know about it!”  Read the article.

. . . .  Also from Merilee,
“Another recent article in Eastman’s Newsletter discusses what one can do with original genealogical material they want to contribute for the general public to be able to access.” Read ‘Where to Donate Records to Make Them Available to Everyone’.
