This is pretty common for a surname list, you get a spurt of activity then it's quiet for a while. Digest only gives you the same postings except they are grouped together instead of you receiving each posting separately. People speak up if they have a query or can help someone with theirs.

Just joined the Austin mail list and thought I would post my problem to see if anyone can help. My wife's ggrandmother was Cornelia Austin. She married Hiram Christler in LaSalle, Ill, Oct 11, 1855. Family tradition says that she was orphaned at a very young age and raised by an uncle (possible surname Becker. Believe she may be the Cornelia Austin living with parents, Thomas and Lydia, according to the 1850 Census for Waltham, LaSalle Co, Ill, enumerated on the 22nd day of Oct 1850. Does anyone have documents that would substantiate this information? Ken at [email protected] (Austin, Christler, Crawford, Scott)
