Hello all,
Some of you know me and the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center in
Fremont and others don't, but we have here a great, award-winning online
obituary index.
www.rbhayes.org/index
We started it here at Hayes and have expanded its coverage to the whole
state of Ohio, with 37 public libraries entering data into the web-based
index. It has been in operation since 2000 with an online shopping cart,
getting almost a million hits a month.
If any of you would like to know more about this great genealogical research
tool which helps us bring some money INTO our library, I will be attending 2
days of the National Genealogical Society conference in Chicago, including
the genealogical librarians' program on Tuesday, June 6th.  I will be
staying at the Hyatt Regency June 5th and 6th, leaving late June 7th.
Feel free to email me ahead of time if you would like to get together to
talk about the Hayes Obituary Index.

For more information on the Index, check out this link

Thanks to all on the List for all the good information we glean from it on a
daily basis using all of your expertise.
