The EFA is currently requesting help from our members and fellow Eddy genealogists in the following areas. Of course the most important aid you can give us is by becoming a Member of the EFA or by submitting your family information Archives Throughout the years many items which may have proved valuable to Eddy Family Association members have been lost or thrown away. Although we can’t do anything about the past , it is time to start archiving materials that future generations of the Eddy Family Association may find useful. Which is why I am now asking you to please send me any copies of Birth, Death, Marriage notices or interesting articles from your local Newspapers, family scrapbooks or bibles, which have a connection to the Eddy surname. These notices will be placed in an archival scrapbook so that they may be available for the future Association members and will also be used to provide a source for the information on your family members. All of the above should be sent to Mark Eddy via email , post Mark S. Eddy ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Eddy Family Virtual Cemetery One important aspect in any genealogist’s research is locating the burial plots of their ancestors. Not only does a tombstone give important data but it also commemorates and acknowledges the life and death of people we loved or those that we didn’t even know. Unfortunately not everyone is able to visit the final resting places of those that share our family name or lineage. If you have any photographs of Tombstones relating to the Eddy Family, new or old and would like to have them posted in the Virtual Cemetery . Thomas A Eddy Mark S. Eddy ------------------------------------------------------------------ Genealogical Committee We are still searching for new members for the Genealogical Committee. This is an important part of our Association. We are currently working on a computer database that we can provide to all family members. We so far have over 75,000 names in our files. We need volunteers who would be willing to do some of the input. If you are interested please contact Mark Eddy our Genealogist. Please note : You must be a member of the EFA or become one in order to help with this particular project. Also if you already have a computer program with your family data on it would you mail us a copy. You can send it on either a Iomega Zip Disk or floppy disks to Mark Eddy our genealogist or Thomas Eddy our Webmaster. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Copyright © 2007 by The Eddy Family Association.
