"The USGenWeb Project will not tolerate any
copyright violations. Lookup requests should be limited to one name, or perhaps two if it
is a married couple. Information given will be minimal; for example if it is a cemetery
lookup, the information given will consist of the name of the cemetery and the dates on
the headstone. Please do not ask for 'everybody with X surname' or an entire family group,
or for hardcopies to be mailed; the volunteers have been asked not to comply with such
requests".
"Our lookups will extend to searching a book
to see if it would be helpful to you in your research. Should the book prove useful, we
can provide the author's address and ordering information".
When requesting a lookup, please follow these
guidelines in your e-mail message to the volunteer:
- Subject should read, "POWELL COUNTY LOOKUP".
- In the first line of your message, please list the
name of the reference you wish checked.
- Limit your request to one or two specific names.
- Be sure to say "thank you" to the
volunteer who helps you.
