The original was scanned and the text corrected for spellings, something that was very difficult in the original mimeograph process. There is also some minor editing. The Hales Manuscript pages being developed during the publication of the Old Series of The Hales Newsletter have been deleted because the content is now found in The Hales Chronicles, now in its second edition with the third edition planned for 2005. The Hales Chronicles can be found on the Hales web-page at www.hales.org and at The Family History Library of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at Salt Lake City, Utah; The Library of Congress at Washington, D.C.; The Library of The Society of Genealogists at London, England; and the Centre for Kentish Studies at Maidstone, Kent, England. The Hales Newsletter is provided to the above cited repositories and the Allen County Public Library at Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Allen County Public Library indexes our publication and provides articles through their Periodical Source Index (PERSI). Reprints of the Old Series of The Hales Newsletters are available at a cost of $3.00 each. EDITORIAL This issue of the Hales Newsletter contains the 1974 Hales Directory. It was made by correcting the card file of addresses that I have, post office address corrections, and by using the address questionnaire information that you returned with your additions and corrections. The address questionnaire was mailed to you as the tear- off cover of the November 1972 Newsletter. If your entry is not as you expected it to be it is because I did not have the information. This is the last Hales Directory that I intend to publish. It is too difficult to try to keep up an address list of all of the Hales families that do not subscribe to the Newsletter or in any other way let me know what their address is. For all I know the post office simply does not deliver them. I have found that to be the case in several instances with third class mail.
