Vermont Vital Records 1909-2008
Ancestry.com now has Vermont Vital Records from 1909-2008 available. This is a great new resource, especially for our members living far away from Vermont. The database includes births, marriages and deaths, and includes the images that would be seen if you had access to the microfilmed records at Vermont Archives. For those who have researched at Vermont Archives, you know of the frustrations of trying to decipher poor microfilm images. The records have all be digitized and should be much easier to view.

VT Families in 1791 Project
The Vermont Families in 1791 Project is under the new editorship of Jonathan W. Stevens, a professional genealogist and the current Vice-President of GSV. The format to be used in Volume 3 has been updated, and is based on the standard used in Vermont Genealogy, but with inline notes for citations. Submissions for census entrants should be 2 to 4 pages in length, and should be thoroughly documented. For the format to follow see this example. For further information regarding format and submissions, the editor can be reached at stevens@vermontel.net.
(See under "Publications" for families listed in Volumes 1 and 2.)
