VIDEO CLIPS from the Ruth Russell |

This index is for use on DVD only, where all videos can be stored.
As of June 2002, videos from the Anderson, De Vos, Horan, Illian, Jurgenson, McFarland, Roscoe, and Salyer families have
been transcribed here into MPG format using Broadway software. Links to these video
clips may also appear in picture and genealogy sections of this CD.
Newer versions of Windows Media Player allow the viewer to adjust the sound and image
quality to enhance the video. For example, some videos have a "rumble" in the sound track due to air conditioning:
reduce the lower sound frequencies. Or some videos may seem too dim or bright :
these qualities may be adjusted. It is possible, with effort, to make such alterations a
permanent part of the file, depending upon the viewer's tastes. Original videos were done on half-inch analog tape,
which will probably be unreadable by about 2010.

Ruth Russel died in July 2002, one week before she was to be videotaped.
It is hoped that family images will be found on movie reels Ruth gave to Kari (McCormick)
Fong, which are being digitized by Jim Hoffman of Video Memories, Stoughton, Wis. |
