1966-75 Grantor Index Soon Available

We’re making great progress in our quest to make older indexes available to you electronically. The 1966-75 Grantor Index should be available by the end of next week. Here’s how it will work: All of our old index books have been microfilmed for disaster recovery purposes. We’ve taken that microfilm and scanned it, creating an electronic image of each page of the index books. While these images (and the original microfilm) are usually quite clear and readable, they contain a lot of extraneous stuff – wide margins, portions of facing pages, for example. Right now, six of our employees are trimming each image to maximize their visibility. As each “letter” is finished, we’re creating an Adobe PDF file containing all of the pages with entries that start with that letter plus a table of contents to help you find the right page. Each letter will have its own file. Tomorrow we hope to put a sample on our website.
