Hi Marsha,
I also have ancestors that came from Warrick Co. to Vanderburgh Co. around
the turn of the century.I would like to type A & B, if possible. I will also
donate $100.00 towards the marriage records books. I was just wondering if
there were marriage record books available for after 1920?
Thanks so much,
Mical Cisterna

Please help me to get Vanderburgh GenWeb Growing...
Have you always wanted to help, but just lived too far away to do
anything?
Well, now you can help the Vanderburgh GenWeb grow! Did your ancestors do
what mine did? Mine moved from Warrick to Vanderburgh prior to 1900.
I have a couple of projects that are in the works. The first one is typing
both volumes of the WPA Supplemental Marriage records. This record gives
the
name of the bride/groom, their ages, their parents' name and the date of
marriage from the years 1846-1920!!! Isn't that a great thing! I've just
purchased both of the books and will be asking for volunteers to help type
the records as soon as I receive them. If you are interested in helping,
please let me know. I'll send you the Xeroxed copies of a letter (or
however
many letters you are interested in typing) by snail mail. So if you'd like
to type all of the surnames beginning with A, B, C, etc., just let me
know.
I'll post who has what letters on the Vanderburgh GenWeb site. Once you
finish typing what you've chosen, then you'll email it to me and I'll post
it.
Another project is the WPA marriage records. They're different than the
supplemental records. The supplemental records don't list who married
whom,
the marriage records do! I can't afford to buy the marriage record books,
but if you are willing to donate a bit of money and a bit of time, we can
buy them all, type them and get them posted. Below are the volumes and the
prices. I'll put a donate button on the site and you can donate any amount
of money you choose. I'll list the donors names and amounts online. When
we
have enough to buy the books, I'll take the button down.

We all win when we all pitch in!!!! There are birth and death records
available... if everyone likes the outcome of the above projects, maybe we
can do it again with the birth and death records! For now, I'll absorb the
copy costs and mailing costs to get the records to you. If it gets too
expensive, I'll ask for help.
I really do want to see the Vanderburgh GenWeb site grow. Please help out.
There are many ways to volunteer! See the Help page at:
http://www.ingenweb.org/invanderburgh/help.htm
If you have other ideas, please send them my way!
Thanks again,
