Hi Dorne, Life is not simple is it - sometimes I answer an email a little too quickly ;( I really should read the thread and gain the inspiration of good ideas more completely. Going "physically" to a FHG is also out for me like you I am physically challenged, and my beloved hubby does a great job in caring for me. I guess I was thinking about the wonderful help I got from a recently found relative in a FHG whose page I found on the internety, so it was the internet I was thinki9ng about... than as I watched the flood of responses to Ray's suggestion.... I found myself changing my mind. :) and yes I agree Ray will be busy I hope he gets some helpers beside him. have a great day and my regards to your Mum :) Sandra >THIS MESSAGE DOES NOT CONTAIN AN ATTACHMENT > >Hi Sandra & Listers, >Going to a Family History Group is all good and well unless you are disabled >in some way. >I am on a disability pension and also care for my invalid mother. >To get to a FHS is not an option for me. >I feel Raymond's idea of an online database is excellent and with so many >willing helpers, it should do well (Raymond may not have much sleep for a >while though <G>) >Take care. >All the best, >Dorne. > >Dorne Saunders (Australia) >dornes@ozemail.com.au >*GENEALOGY LOOKUPS* >- putting families together - >ANTI VIRUS INSTALLED >******************************* >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Sandra Langshaw" <slangshaw9@optusnet.com.au> >To: <AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES-L@rootsweb.com> >Sent: Friday, September 12, 2003 10:35 AM >Subject: [[AUS-CEM]] Re: [[AUS-CEM]] WELCOME TO NEW MEMBERS > > >> G'day Family Historians. >> >> re Raymonds idea of adding an individual's name and nearest cemetery >> to a database - it may be more effective to enllist the closest >> Family History Group who have their own databases of their local >> cemeteries. >> >> Sandra > > > >==== AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES Mailing List ==== >================================================================== >Cemetery Records on line:- >http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~batman/ >================================================================== >http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl?list=AUSTRALIA-CEMETERIES > >============================== >To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy >records, go to: >http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237
