Friday
Hi,
I've spent the day continuing to build my church database and contact them all (or discern which ones should be contacted). I'm now up to 100 contacts for churches and individuals! I'll be continuing to arrange meetings with them and find relevant information through the coming weeks. I've worked most of today at the HCMC and talked to Greg about our dropbox issues. He says he may look into downloading the dropbox app for these computers here so we can use them the same way as our home computer (see below if you missed that). If he does, it will make our work in the lab a bit easier and less likely to mess up our programs. Now if only he could do something about these darn ergonomic keyboards...!
Kirsten and Ashley, in case you for some reason need to cross reference soldiers with church members, I've started a second page in my archive file for honour rolls. As I find more, I will continue to update it with names by church, and include indication of death if it is shown on the original roll. When I meet with the larger archives next week and the week after, I'll look for membership registers that can also be used for cross referencing.
I am cutting out early today, I just found out my house is being sold and we are having an appraiser in on Monday morning, so I've got to (literally) clean house and get everything in order before then. I'll make up the hours in the coming weeks.
