commented on the poor attendance at the October 2013 Semi-Annual
meeting and asked for suggestions to improve the attendance. The
following were mentioned:
- Electronically announce the April meeting via emails and facebook
- Kay Badger suggested a meeting/fair in the Bountiful Tabernacle focused on getting the youth interested in Thomas Tolman history.
- Have an activity in the Tolman Park
- Have a temple session in the morning.
Suggestion for a speaker for the April
meeting was Jay Burrup who is in the Church History Research Dept.
Kay Badger will check with him.
Loraine will speak on issues that she
feels needs addressing
Need to schedule additional cleanup of
the filing cabinets at the Center.
REPORTS OF BOARD MEMBERS:
Web Master – Trent Larson: Reminded
the members that the list of passwords are in
the cabinets at the
center. Suggested setting up video tape for the semi- annual
meetings
Genealogist and Temple Work –
Loraine T Pace :
1. She continues
to scan pertinent documents retrieved from the filing cabinet cleanup
2. Received an
email from Donavan Tolman in CA and is a descendant of Nathan Tolman.
3. Update on the
Thomas Briggs journals- The hard copy is over 500 pages and covers
time period of 1881 to 1909. It will be available on CD.
4. Still wrapping
up loose ends on the “outside” lines. Much of research in
England dead ends in 1500’s.
5. Church is making
it much easier to do research from home with the digitizing of books.
