CCGS Members' Corner

  Welcome to the Members' Corner -- designed primarily for easy access to member-specific information. As always, everyone with an interest in genealogy is invited to become a member by joining the Society.

• Super Eights
• "Super Eights" were started in 2007 as a variation of our surname file. Every year, instead of submitting pedigree charts, a member may submit up to eight surnames of genealogical interest. We will then publish these surnames in an upcoming newsletter along with the corresponding membership numbers and name. Members of common interests may then contact one another and share what they have. You may submit your eight surnames when you mail in a membership form (new or renewal), by e-mailing Donna Chin, or by sending them by mail to:
  Super Eights
  Centre County Genealogical Society
  P.O. Box 1135
  State College, PA 16804-1135
  
• Volunteer Opportunities
• Member volunteers are needed to assist in the preparation of our cemetery series publications. Computer help is needed with the indexing of Union Cemetery in Bellefonte, and can be done either locally or by long distance. The volunteer must be very familiar with how to index names in a Word file (that is already typed), be willing to create the indexing in our format, and complete their part of the project within a month or two. Please contact Ellen, Cemetery Inventory Project Chair, if you are willing to help.
• In collaboration with Centre County Historical Society, CCGS is pursuing an "Adopt-A-Cemetery" project. Members need to help us identify cemeteries in particular need and sources of money that might be available for these projects. Please contact Nancy with information.
