Solomon Valley Chronicles Site Policy and Copyright Notice

We who live in the Solomon Valley respect our neighbors and treat them the same way we want to be treated. We lend a helping hand when needed and watch over their place during their absence. We do not borrow their belongings without asking. Trusting others is such a way of life, our homes are usually unlocked and the keys are in our cars.

The transcriptions and photos on Solomon Valley Chronicles represent many hours of work, freely shared to help Solomon Valley researchers. The site itself is a commitment of the owner's resources (energy, time and money) to those researching this area from afar. So let's be good Solomon Valley "cyber neighbors" by respecting the contributors and treating them the way we want to be treated. Please do not copy any item from here to another web-site without the written permission of the submitter, photographer or site-owner, whichever is applicable. See either the Contributor page for submitters' email addresses or use the Contact Information page to get in touch with the site-owner.

If you would like to link to this site or would like help in creating a "citation" to this site, please use the Assistance link on the Contact page.
