DMG PROJECT UPDATE: 90,000 entries in the database!
VOLUNTEERS STILL NEEDED!

The HKCGS is over a year into this exciting project. The process of indexing the DAILY MINING GAZETTE early years (about 1913 to 196?) is ongoing. The first CD of a series is avail (see above), but the work goes on. We are indexing (BMDs) Births, Deaths, and Marriages, along with some special events. We still can use help paging through the bounded gazettes looking for BMDs. If interested please contact Avis .

A side benefit of helping with the indexing is reading through the old articles and looking at the ads. Looking at what was published years ago you realize how much times have changed. Try it just once, you will be hooked and come back for more! Any amount of time you can spare will help! Thank you in advance.
