Just want everyone to know that the website we had at rootsweb (http://www.rootsweb.com/~wvsghs/) is no longer an active website. It has been archived by Ancestry and therefore we can do no changes to the information on the website, or modifications to the website. I know this is an inconvenience but there is nothing we can do. When I tried to assess the site today, I received an error the site could not be reached. 🤷‍♀️ I will work on getting a new brochure onto this page and a list of books we have for sale. A lot of books are outdated, some we have run out of and we are not making any new copies since sales of books have been very slow. A new holdings list needs to be prepared, but this will be a really slow process as we have so few volunteers, that is why our hours are very limited. But we hope to continue to keep moving forward. Thank you for everyone's patience.
