Hi Rhonda,
We hope all is going well with you! I
just learned we published 544,802 names of people who were married in Indiana
based on the indexing which has been done by members of your Society and
others. As you can see from below, we now have almost four million names of
people who are in the marriage records – note the total was updated on Aug 9th .
Thank you for all you are doing! We
are not finished yet, there is more indexing yet to be done.
We are starting to take pictures in
various counties in Indiana using a contractor because we do not want to slow
down the effort. While we normally work with volunteers, they are not allowed
to serve at this point in time because of COVID.
We are starting in Miami, Shelby,
Howard, Wayne, Switzerland, Sullivan, Clay, Newton, Jasper, Starke, Knox,
and Boone counties. We hope the local county society members will be able
to assist in doing the document preparation work in these counties.
Please let me know if you have any
questions.
Thank you,
John de Jong, AG®
