Thanks to Utah Digital Newspapers

We owe a debt of gratitude to the Utah Digital Newspapers Project, begun by the University of Utah, and assisted along by BYU and others. The Utah Digital Newaspapers (UDN) site, as of July 2010, provides access to 1 Million digitized articles, which provide untold millions of valuable bits of history. This site provided access to Twila Kearl's articles that are the basis of this Blog.

I'd also like to thank John Herbert, Program Director, Utah Digital Newspapers, for his quick response to my email seeking permission to prepare our publication of Twila's articles. His letter is why you'll see specific UDN Reference URLs associated with each article.

The UDN program's motto is: "Creating Citizen Historians", and indeed that is in fact what it has done, with regard to myself, at any rate. We will reference their site and the articles they so diligently preserved throughout this site. We encourage you to visit UDN's site, and use it to make history come alive for yourself and your family.

The UDN Project provides the citizens of Utah, the United States of America, and indeed the world with an invaluable resource for historical research. Please DONATE to the UDN Project, if you can, to help it continue with this inestimably valuable work!
