Looking to 2005, the SHHAR Board is committed to
providing more internet resources which will be linked
through SHHAR and Somos Primos home pages. Thus far:
1) John Inclan has agreed to allow his wonderful
research, compiled into family
pedigrees to be shared online.
2) Dr. Ganville Hough's monumental Patriot's series
will also be available. California
and Arizona have been prepared for internet access
and will be uploaded soon.
3) Black-Latino Connection booklet, plus more research
hopefully will be ready for
the internet by January.
Thank you for your kind letters of support. You have
no idea what a boost of energy I get from hearing that
the information that you read in Somos Primos is
helping.
Merry Christmas, may you all enjoy a blessed and
joyful season.
Sincerely, Mimi
