Hello, everyone, Yes, this is going to be an off-topic post/thread, so those of you who aren't living in Arkansas at the moment, please be patient and delete if you are not interested. Jann let me know last night that the tornadoes across the state were horrible. I just got off the phone with my mom after making sure my family (in De Queen and Arkadelphia) were OK. Since we on the list are all family, I want to know if everyone here is all right as well!! Please let us know if your area of the state was damaged. And this is genealogy-related, if you think about it. Think about the 1949 tornado in Warren that Jann has posted about. Yesterday's event (30+ tornadoes in one night?!) will be one for the history books, and our grandkids and great-grandkids will wonder what we were doing/thinking when the storms hit. So, with an eye to the future, what will you tell them when they ask? Hoping everyone is safe, Melissa
