Many thanks to Candy Grubb who started the Stevens County GenWeb page back in 1997. She did a great job of getting this set up and running! As of August 1999, I have assumed the responsibility for this site. If you have any suggestions for improving these pages, things you would like to see here that aren't, or find any bad links, please e-mail me. Susan Dechant. I also encourage you to submit items to me that would be of interest to other Stevens County researchers. My eternal appreciation goes out to those of you who have already sent items in a format that was easy for me to post to the web site! The less time I have to spend in figuring out how to post something, the quicker it will get up there!! And, please, for any communication with me, include "Stevens Co" in the subject line. |
