        An effort is underway to make even more online data available FREE to researchers. Your data or typing skills can enhance this project. Your help is needed. We have materials that need transcribing. Also, when you survey a cemetery, transcribe a will, a deed, a letter, or any other non-copyrighted document, please consider donating a text copy via e-mail to the San Francisco Golden Nugget Library. The more that we share our information, the more that we will all learn about our ancestors. If you have any data you are willing to share or help transcribe, please contact Nancy Pratt Melton.
