Heritage Books Arrive

 ___Seventy five boxes of 10 books each were delivered to Jefferson Library shortly after noon today.____
 __Jeff and Ben were the youngsters, and best helpers ever!!  Here Grandpa and Grandson work together. The boys got tired of waiting for the elevator, that would only hold 10 boxes at a time, and they started carrying 2 boxes of books down the stairs.  A couple others, not as old as some of us, carried 1 box down at a time.  They weighted 51# each.
 ___The basement was soon filling up.  The Genealogy Society members will be helping during Library hours the next 3 days, for people to come in to pick up their orders.  Also there are some consignment books that can be purchased.  I'm very pleased with the finished product.  There were times when we wondered if we would get it accomplished.   The "Heritage of Greene County" has been in process for over a year.
