Featured Grant Project
Rogue Valley Genealogical Society
The Rogue Valley Genealogical Society worked fast and furious to complete their big grant project in record time. With great volunteer contribution, the group photographed and recorded every marker in five Jackson County cemeteries. They also put 10,000 entries from their burial card catalog into electronic format. They are now planning to complete similar work in all other Jackson County cemeteries and to continue entering there other burial information.
 
All of this effort can be found on their library website. http://www.rvgslibrary.org
