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.  I am Tina Hursh and I am the
coordinator for Sample County, Minnesota.  Volunteers are needed to enter, edit, and archive
the biographies for each project.  If you have biographies you would like to donate for
Sample County, please contact me.  If you would like to volunteer to coordinate a county
please contact the Minnesota State Coordinator Tina Hursh.
