Indexing Project - Volunteers Wanted
Hello all.I am an IMEL descendant (Peter>Thomas>Robert Newberry), and have a complete copy of the book "Immel and Imel Families in America", by Velma Byrum Keller.
An index is long-overdue for this book, and I will volunteer my time and resources to
a) compile the index material
b) create an searchable web site and upload data.
c) Make corrections and maintain the index as needed.
I am asking for people who own this book or have ready access, to volunteer their time to index a portion of the book, and send me the information for compilation.The book has 521 pages - if 10 people volunteer, I think 50 pages per person would be manageable.I have given some thought to the index "contents" and think it should contain at minimum:
name
parent
birth & death year/page & section -- at a minimum.
I encourage you to write to me with your comments, suggestions, and a commitment to be a volunteer.This index, when completed, will make an otherwise unwieldly research tool much more user friendly!

(That's "imel-dot-index")
Thank you, and best regards,
