To all who are upset with the way the Library runs the Genealogy
Dept.
I as a member of the CCGS am upset with the Library and the way they make
you feel
when you are doing research. I joined the Club in 1990 after I
retired from work.
I wish there was a solutions to the problem, but I don't know
what it
would be.
I go there to do research for other people and I am treated the same way.
I have
even met people there and helped them with their research, but it is
the same thing over and over again. I was told the locked cabinets were to
keep people from stealing books. But I have gone there and books are laying
on the tables and no one is in the room. That reason doesn't hold water
with me. If they are afraid of someone stealing them, they should put them
away as soon as the person is done and gone from the Library.
The CCGS has only about 7-8 members. So there is no way we could put some
one in
the room to watch people.
We usually have only about 5 people at a meeting.
The fellow you referred to was Hardy Songer. He had been a member for
many years.
The club members will sure miss him.
We have a meeting tomorrow night at the Library and I will check and see
if the
book on the McConnaughhay family is there.

former Pres. of the CCGS.
