Worked like mad to get house cleaned up. In to shop at 5:00 but David and Bob Rau didn’t arrive until 6:00. To Perkins for dinner and then to genealogy meeting. Took Courthouse book and asked Maxine to display them for sale said no immediately two people bought them. Maxine conducted her usual tiresome meeting. Bob Rau’s presentation of Roots M and SuperCalc for entering genealogy records was intriguing. David showed capabilities of data extracted from Cemetery records. At home Bob showed me more Roots and made copy.
