Missouri Digital Heritage : Birth and Death Records

Missouri Digital Heritage : Birth and Death Records

Thank you, Missouri!

We check the census records, we check ancestry.com, we look for needles in a haystack at worldconnect.com (Rootsweb), but do we remember that the states have vital records info? Check your state web sites (*.gov), check the state library sites, the state archives...see what state records and state owned books are available for you to search. State level resources for genealogists are treasure chests, waiting to be discovered.

The Northwest Florida Fair Grounds - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

The Northwest Florida Fair Grounds - Fort Walton Beach, Florida

As Spring time moves a little closer each day, we will all be looking for an excuse to get out of the house! Not many folks realize that there is a fun playground park at the fairgrounds location. There is also a local produce market that will be re-positioned closer to the playground. I'm not sure of the days or hours, but thought I would send you this link, anyway. Here you can view the NWFL Fairgrounds schedule to see if there are events in which you are interested in attending.
