George and Drew return from the annual conference of the National
Genealogical Society. Roots in the Boot (an upcoming mid-July
Italian Genealogy and Heritage Conference in Pittsburgh) is
announced (www.rootsintheboot.org). Reading the mailbag,
George and Drew clarify some issues relating to ProQuest's
HeritageQuest Online product (as it relates to remote access for
genealogical and historical societies), bring up concerns about the
closing of the Sullivan County (NY) Historical Society/Museum, and
discuss affidavits as they relate to birth and marriage
certificates. Podcast listeners will find out if Drew was
successful in completing his 5-item to-do list for the NGS
conference. George talks about the vendors (especially the
ones selling books).
