In May of 1997, this project was organized by Jeff Murphy, using the established KY Biographies Project as a model.  State coordinators were sought to set  up their own state project.  They were offered the system design and tools created for the KY project, but were free to set up their project in any way they chose. 

If you have biographies you would like to donate for Lycoming County, please contact the Lycoming County Coordinator, Linda J. East

Volunteers are needed to enter, edit, and archive the biographies for each project.  If you would like to volunteer to coordinate a county, please contact the PAGenWeb State Coordinator, Nancy Janyszeski

Submission Guidelines

This is first and foremost; DO NOT post materials protected by copyright other than your own!  Any posted biographies found to be protected by a copyright of someone other than the submitter will be removed.  Books and biography collections printed prior to 1931 are generally not protected by copyright and are considered to be in the public domain.  Photo static re-prints or duplications of pre-1931 works are not protected by current copyright.  The short story here is:  Make sure your source books are pre-1931 originals, or re-prints or copies of pre-1931 originals.  Make sure all original works are accompanied by your copyright notice, which is at the least the word "copyright", your name, and the date.
