Hello RTA Friends,
Well, it's hard to believe it's been more than a year since the Restore the Ancestors project was born. The project launched in July of last year and since that time, we have made great strides in working through indexing the collection, because of your hard work and heartfelt contributions in indexing pages.
We thought it might be fun to go to the Tote Board to see exactly what we have accomplished. The collection contains 22,037 images, and indexing is 64% complete. Ready for totals?
We thank you, our wonderful volunteers, for the hard work and dedication that has turned Restore the Ancestors into the Mouse That Roared. The Ancestors must be so proud!Well, it's hard to believe it's been more than a year since the Restore the Ancestors project was born.
