Expenses:

Below is an approximate break down of expenses I had while collecting The genealogical Data Listed At this web site. Please note my man hours is an expense, but I do not list it. Additionally any information I send to people via email, I do not charge for or consider an expense.

I purchased a new computer in December 2002 in hopes to run and the family history web site from it. But It is not for the soul purpose of genealogy, so I am not including that as an expense here either, in case people are wondering.
