I have some information on Geneology sites on the internet. Monday I met with Mary McNabb from the Kingsport Center. They have a Geneology Club that she belongs to. I was invited to their meeting on Friday. Mary said she would have a list of reputable (and FREE) internet sites for me at the meeting. I'll let you know about this at our meeting for Feb 4.

There will be no class on FEB 11. I have a meeting in Abingdon about GPS marketing etc. If there is anything interesting I let you know.
