The SDGENWEB
was established in June 1996, by a group of genealogists
with an interest in providing free genealogical data to
the public. The idea was to provide a single entry point
for all counties in South Dakota, where collected
databases would be stored. In addition to collecting
these databases, other resources were made available
including information on genealogical societies, posted
queries, maps, and other aids.
One individual (from each county in every state) was
found to coordinate the collection of genealogical
databases and generally oversee the contents of that
county on the web page. This page of
Lyman County genealogy is
maintained by
Barbara Speck
,Reliance/Oacoma
resident. This site is updated on a regular basis.
 My
favorite person in the whole world, Grandma Black (Esther
Creasey-Black), washed clothes every Monday. THE
RULE back in the day. Her best friend, Martha Hoffer, lived at
the bottom of the block (empty lots between them). When they
hung their clothes, they shouted "yoo hoo" and did "the wave"
from their clotheslines. Grandma's house is gone now and so is
the clothesline, but the poles are still there. We drove through
her yard last week (Aug. 2009) and no matter that the lines are
gone. I could see her there waving to Martha and the two of them
shouting out their
"yoo hoos". I share this graphic with
you in memory of my Grandma Black.
