The Kansas State Historical Society has started a statewide effort
to document Kansans' responses to the events of 11 September and subsequent
events. This effort is called the "Kansas Remembers" Project. The
society hopes the collections will include written remembrances, printed materials,
photographs and objects.
The following is an excerpt from an announcement by the Kansas
State Historical Society:
As genealogists, we have a special obligation to our descendents
to leave them information about what it was like to live in these historic
times. I hope you will share information about this project with your readers.
Additional information about the project, and a list of questions for reflection
can be found on our Web site at: www.kshs.org/whatsnew/remembr.htm
Individuals who are residents of Kansas, or who consider themselves
native Kansans (even though they may be living elsewhere) are eligible to
participate in this project. Persons who are not eligible to participate
in the Kansas Remembers project may wish to consider organizing similar
efforts in their own communities and states.
