Time is slipping past quickly. Have you contacted your Congressman to ask if he supports HR2256, the Preserving the American Historical Record Act? The PAHR will help Americans archive our precious records through grants to each state.
With all the recent weather events, it stands to reason we are losing our historical records. Too frightening to mourn them, we should all be asking Congress to move forward with the bill so American History is maintained for future generations.
Have you noticed how libraries and archives have reduced their hours for genealogy buffs? Let's work together and save our history!

Check to see if your Congressman has signed on to support the bill: http://www.archivists.org/pahr/#spons
Ahhh, genealogy. A glimpse of the past shows of what I am made.....
