[Genealib] finding people in the future & trends in publishing personal information

[Jeffrey J. Courouleau]

Oddly enough, it might be a newspaper thing. The reason I say that is
that, the local newspaper in Perry, where I've lived for 2 years, went
about the first half of my time here publishing only paid marriage and
anniversary announcements. In the past six months or so, they've gone
back to publishing the older style full lists of all the pleas entered
into the local court, marriage licenses, etc.

I think most of it is that the new clerk is e-mailing the info to them
in easy to use form.

Could it simply be your newspaper saving space or thinking it's not
worthwhile?

Thanks,

Jeffrey
