Doug:
My father's family came from Daviess County, and though I now live in Michigan, I am
also irate at the carelessness and callousness of the county commission, as well as the
voters. Who knows what treasures are there to be uncovered? When I visited a few years
ago, I didn't know the Historical Soc. existed. I would have been glad to dig through
their holdings myself. Is there a county genealogical society or some volunteers who would
staff the facility and organize the materials? If I lived there, I would be glad to help.
I do that here, and I have no family here to look for. Can't help but think there are
people in Daviess Co. who would do it. Someone needs to organize a grassroots effort.
