March 16, 2009 Update

Normal filming schedule for this week. Only three binders of Burial Permits remain to be filmed. If we finish the Burial Permits this week , we may have the next week or two off until we get the Lot Deeds sorted. We will also have to do a step test on the Deeds before filming. Watch the blog for an update. When we finish the Deeds and a few miscellaneous items, the Hanover Green Cemetery Project will be complete.

I'd also like to let everyone know that the Northeast Pennsylvania Genealogical Society's Luzerne County Tax Assessment Records Project has been completed. We now have available, on microfilm, all the Luzerne County Tax Assessment Records up to at least the year 1900. Some rolls run a few years into the 1900's. This collection contains over 265 rolls of microfilm and is a great asset to our Society. We'd like to thank Doug Nicol for all his efforts in this project. He made numerous trips to the Luzerne County Courthouse to pick-up rolls of microfilm, dropping them off for duplicating, then returning the originals to the Courthouse and the duplicates to our library.
Thanks Doug.

I guess that's about it for this week.

Happy filming,

Alan
