Thanks to the following: Don Kauffman, Edmonton, Alberta--Webster and Project Manager, who conceived the project, coordinated the volunteers, and posted the results. We are grateful for his untiring, persistent efforts. Ruth Schrock--Archives Assistant, Goshen Archives. Ruth mailed out the copy, coordinated the Goshen transcribers, transcribed, answered questions, and generally kept the project going. Ralph Shetler--creator of the "original" index on paper, without which this project would have been much more difficult. Also Charles Hunsecker who expanded Ralph's original index. John E. Sharp, Director, Mennonite Church USA Historical Commitee, Goshen, Indiana--CEO of the MennObits project. CEO = Chief Encouragement Officer! July 26, 2003 ---Don Kauffman, Margaret Shetler, Ralph Shetler in the archives of the Mennonite Historical Society of Alberta at Calgary, Alberta. Margaret and Ralph live in Scotts Mills, Oregon where Margaret is the secretary for OMHGS (Oregon Mennonite History and Genealogy Society) and archivist in the archives they have on the campus of Western Mennonite School. Don was project Manager for the Mennobits Project and lives in Edmonton, Alberta. They are standing in front of the Gospel Herald magazines which were used in the Mennobits project. Ralph collected these magazines in Oregon, and donated them to Don for use in the project. When the project was completed Ralph and Don donated the magazines to the Alberta archives. Ralph also did work on the indexing that was used in Mennobits, and he typed/transcribed many obituaries. Ralph died October 18, 2004 [See obituary]. We are grateful for Ralph's contribution to this project. |
