GSMC Needs Data Entry Volunteers

GSMC is in the midst of a large and very useful funeral records database project.
We are indexing the Flanner and Buchanan records from 1904-1960 
to help researchers find their family members.
Volunteers will extract THREE data fields from the original pages into an Excel spreadsheet.
[See sample below.]
We are doing this on Wednesdays 10am-3pm. 
Please help us finish this great Marion County genealogy resource.



 Contact any Board member to volunteer. Thanks!
