DATABASES ADDED
MICHIGAN (Michael McDonnell)
Active State Chartered Credit Unions Locator – Lets you find credit unions chartered according to the Michigan Credit Union Act, 2003 PA 215, as amended. It does not include credit unions chartered by the National Credit Union Administration and credit unions chartered by other states. You can search by credit union name (or part of the name), City, county, zip code, or charter number.
NEW MEXICO (Adrienne Walker)
Historic Markers – Search through the geographic regions of New Mexico for historical markers. A brief description of each marker and its approximate location will display by region on a map by scrolling over a marker name. There is also a section of New Mexico Women Historical Markers. Citizens can also report missing historical markers and make recommendations for additional markers.
TEXAS (Ann Ellis)
Portal for Comprehensive Health Data in Texas – This portal contains statistics for births, deaths, demographics, geographic and survey data on risk factors and disease prevalence, and hospital records within the state
