About Us
http://www.nwigs.org/projects.php
Many of the projects listed below are in need of volunteers. Please consider offering your time. We have completed years 1930 through 1934 and we have four volunteers working on years 1936 through 1938 of the Times Newspaper. We hope to have this completed by the end of 2010. When each year is completed it is place on the Lake County Library shelves for genealogist and librarians to use. We would like to thank the many volunteers who have helped us over the years in doing this project.
