Family Tree Magazine honors genealogy volunteers.
Imagine 284 pounds of indexes. That's how much the results of the Huron Shores Genealogical Society's <rootsweb.ancestry.com/~miiosco2/huronpage.html> indexing project, if printed, would weigh.
The group tackles city directories, church records, tax rolls, the Tawas Herald, the Wurtsmith Warbler and much more, and makes their indexes available on a CD and free on Michigan Gen Web at <rootsweb.ancestry.com/~usgenweb/mi/iosco/3501hsgs.htm>. Members also fill researchers' original-record requests for a small fee.
