Our current administrative team now consists of:
Sheryl Slaughter -- Project Coordinator
Sherri Hall -- acting Assistant Project Coordinator-Submissions (and all
around right-hand gal! I hope to ease her load soon.)
Pat Oliver -- Assistant Project Coordinator-Indexing
Janice Armstrong -- Assistant Project Coordinator-Volunteer Assessment &
Training
Lynn Pennick -- Assistant Project Coordinator-Transcription
I feel fortunate to have such a talented and committed team running this
project!!
With this shift in responsibilities, we've just lost several of our best
proofers. With that in mind, some of you senior transcribers will need to be
promoted to proofers in order to keep balance in the project. Those
invitations will be extended shortly.
By the end of the weekend, we will have assigned our 4,000th death
certificate for transcription, despite holding off on new volunteers for the
past month while waiting for the training program.
Our new collection of early school census images is being processed and will
shortly be transcribed as birth records for the project.
We have had many hundreds of submissions by site visitors.
Large collections of death certificate images have been donated by a number
of individuals, including Edith Bastin, Kerry Kirk, Sherri Hall, Pam Carey
Durstock, Cissy Thompson and others.
As soon as the training program is operational we will begin soliciting
volunteers in much greater numbers. Current volunteers will shortly be
broken up into teams and be able to work more efficiently and get folder
assignments quickly.
We just keep moving forward!! You are a terrific group of volunteers. Thanks
for all you do.
