As most of you know the David Hardee book, on my web site, is  completed.  
Now, it's time for a new project.  The book THE CROOM  FAMILY compiled by Doris 
Croom Outlaw back in the '50s has been graciously  donated for uploading to 
the site.  According to the last page in the book,  it has 373 pages, but due to 
Mrs. Outlaw's unique numbering system, there are  actually over 500 
pages---it's going to take awhile to complete the  uploading.  The book is a 
mimeographed, privately published collection of  notes, letters, handwritten charts and 
theories--some proven, many not.   There is no index to speak of, so you're in 
for a great deal of hunting!! There  is no copyright. There is much 
controversy regarding accuracy, fact,  sources, etc. but I think she did a great job 
for the scant number of  resources that were available to her.  Accolades to 
Mrs. Outlaw for her  endeavors, and this is another genealogist from a past 
generation who would have  been ecstatic about our internet capabilities. 
Be patient...and keep checking back.
