“The MD State Archives has
a program where you can pay 50% of the cost to have them digitize records.
They will send you a CD of the records,
but will also put the digitized
records on-line. I recently did this
for one of the 3 microfilm rolls of
St. Joseph's records.
I received the CD from MSA a
few months ago, but I recently saw that these records are now on-line...
“Note that this is a large download of
~230 MB. These records contain
death records, interments, confirmations
and communions.
The other two rolls contain baptismal records. I asked the MSA if they could digitize these rolls and exclude any
baptisms less than 100 years old,
but they said they could not”

PS I would have uploaded this to the Box.net site but it is very large so
I thought anybody who wants it can get it from the MD State Archives.
