What you would be doing is sending emails to the SC's of your assigned region asking them to let you know if they have any changes to their membership and, if so, what they are. You would then put the information together for the Data Set Manager so she can make any changes. You would also help with the National election and any State elections we might be asked to run. *If you are interested, please do not reply to this email. Replies to this email will only be sent to the National Coordinator instead of the Chair of the Election Committee. * *ALL REPLIES SHOULD BE SENT TO GAYLE TRILLER AT:* gaylelt@comcast.net Thank you.

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Denise Wells <ncusgenweb@gmail.com> Date: Wed, Jan 18, 2017 at 5:45 AM Subject: [SC-USGWg] Fwd: North Florida Genealogy Conference - Reguest for flyers/brochures To: state-coord@googlegroups.com Good morning everyone: I'm going to kill two birds with one stone.... well, actually three with the forwarding of the below email: *7th Annual North Florida Genealogy Conference* I received the below email from Ann Staley regarding a North Florida Annual Conference. Ann is seeking brochures that could be provided to attendees. I do not know the number of attendees, but she would like some brochures from at least the states that touch Florida, as that is from where many of their attendees might be coming from. I have not attended this conference in the past. I think it would be great if Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and North and South Carolina might be able to assist them. I don't know whether they would entertain receiving a pdf version and them printing them. I have already sent an email to the leadership in Florida to check into brochures that Florida may have available. *2017 NGS NATIONAL CONFERENCE, RALEIGH, NC* 2017 NGS NATIONAL CONFERENCE is coming up in the first half of May in Raleigh, NC. The plan is for me to travel to Raleigh, and I already have one volunteer and a place to stay. We could definitely use brochures from any state in our Project that would have some that they could send to us as well. I could arrange for you to send them directly to someone in Raleigh who is a USGW member so I would not have to transport them to Raleigh. If you have any that you would like to provide for the annual NGS Conference, we would greatly appreciate that. *USGENWEB PROJECT GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE* We are still seeking volunteers for the Grievance Committee. I sent out a request for additional volunteers. We have been extremely fortunate in not having any grievances in quite some time; however, it is quite possible that we might NOT need to deal with any grievances, but we should be prepared. If you have an interest in serving on a Committee for the USGenWeb Project on that committee, please let me hear from you. Also, please discuss with your county coordinators to determine if any of them have an interest. I will then put you in touch with the newly appointed Chair for that Committee, John Quigley. John has served in this capacity in the past, and is willing to take it one for this current year. Your kind consideration, or that of any of your county coordinators who might have an interest, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. I appreciate your attention to this email. Please do not hesitate to contact me and I will get back to you as quickly as I can.

This year, there are several open positions where more than one highly qualified volunteer has agreed to run, and serve if elected. I would like to suggest you take the next few days before the election starts to familiarize yourself with all the candidates. Several of them have posted campaign pages and they are listed on the Meet the Candidates page at <http://usgenweb.org/usgwelections/candidates-index.html> If you have questions, and the candidate has not posted a campaign page with a contact email, ask on your State, Special Project, or Regional mailing list. Even if a candidate is not a member of a particular mailing list, someone on that list will probably be familiar with the candidate's participation in USGW, and be able to suggest how to reach them with any questions you may have. If you are a candidate, and would like to have your campaign page added to the Meet the Candidates page, please send the URL to Gayle Triller, EC Chair <gaylelt@comcast.net> or to me, Dataset Manager <pjroots@att.net> Pat Asher -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Discuss-L" group.

Hi, Anyone have any ideas on this one??? Gail ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Amy D. Brown <eyeonsedona@gmail.com> Date: Thu, May 26, 2016 at 5:55 PM Subject: Parcel History To: gail.kilgore@gmail.com Dear Gail, My name is Amy D. Brown and I am a REALTOR with RE/MAX Sedona. I am in the process of taking a Vacant Lot listing that I think may have some historical background to it. The Vacant Lot is 2 ares and has an old Brick Chimney on it and has Flood / Ditch Irrigation Rights, a Well and the Water Rights are currently being investigated by Arizona Department of Water (ADWR). I have been to the Development Services Department at the Yavapai County Building and they do not have any permits pulled for the property, so they have no information. They started cataloging their Permits in 1993. It was suggested that I check with the Assessor's Office for anything prior to 1993, so I did and they too have nothing. My thought is that this property might of been part of a larger parcel at one time and the story has been told that it was an area for growing melons. Would you be able to give me any direction on whom might be able to give me some history to this property? The physical address is 10125 E. Swinging Bridge Lane, Cornville, AZ 86325. APN #407-32-042. Again, any information, resources, department or persons that you might be able to offer would be most helpful. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and I look forward to hearing from you.

I wanted to share with you that a lot of times I get the stupidest emails from people asking the weirdest questions. Last night I got and email asking me about a burial at White Tanks Cemetery which is in Maricopa Co. First thing that crossed my mind was that the cemetery could belong to the city and that is where the paupers or prisoners are buried but I wasn't sure so didn't say anything. I told the lady that I wasn't the contact for the cemetery and she told me her story. She was in Phoenix until tomorrow afternoon and was looking for her ex boyfriend who died in Jan and was buried in Mar so I told her to get a hold of the mortuary, which she did and they wouldn't give her any info because she was not a relative. Told her to go to Vital records and get a copy of his death certificate.. she went to the police and they told her no one claimed the body, there was no one to notify but they found him dead in his motorhome and that he died from cancer.

THANK YOU.] I know that many of your aren't interested in reading my long emails, however, I feel that this is important to convey to all of you. As many of you know, we have been scheduled to be a vendor at the upcoming NGS Conference in Fort Lauderdale, FL, May 4-7, 2016. I had planned to be there every day during the conference, but given my current health problem I am dealing with, I cannot be sure that I can be there, especially full time. When I asked NGS about a refund, they advised that they could only refund me $310 of our donor payment. I was then advised that refunds had to be requested prior to February 1. I explained that I did not receive my final current diagnosis until February 15th. This lady then said she would check with a director and let me know if they could do anything more. She called me back, and said no, they could only refund to me $310 to be returned to our donors. I then advised that had I been attempting to cancel just because of a conflict of the date, or some other reason, I would understand, and that I didn't feel it was fair to our supporters that they be punished for my health problem. I then went out on a limb and advised that given their resistance to assisting The USGenWeb Project at this time, and my disappointment in them, that as long as I was the National Coordinator, I wasn't going to be interested in giving them any of our business during any term I might be serving. (One never knows if they have enough pull to get a positive reaction by saying that, but I felt it was worth taking a chance, right.) She then asked if she could have one of the directors call me. I said sure, that would be fine, but that I was very disappointed in NGS. The person who called me back is the Executive Director of NGS. I explained my situation, and that I was still working trying to get enough volunteers to manage the booth because I am not confident that I can be there full time or at all depending on my doctor's schedule. So he offered to transfer both booths to the 2017 NGS Conference in Raleigh, NC. Seeing an opportunity here, I asked if he would be willing to refund one booth for this year, and transfer the second to Raleigh. He said he could do that. We then discussed that I hoped to be able to put together enough volunteers who will clearly make themselves available to assist with one booth this year, then could we keep one booth for this year and one for next year. He agreed to both of these requests. He will be calling me next week to see what we worked out from our membership. So, we need volunteers to assist with the both for USGenWeb. If you are coming for the conference, please step up to assist. If there is any possible way that I can be there, I will be as long as I am able to get there and am not still dealing with recovery and unable to participate. I really want to be there. If I'm just in pain, I may be there anyway. The goal right now is to put together a team of people to manage the booth for the period of the conference. Joy Fisher is most generally the person who has handled the booth in the past and I am still hoping that she will be attending. Joy has the banner for the booth and other supplies. If we can get a team together, we will reduce from 2 booths to one booth. Then, NGS will then transfer our second booth payment to the conference in 2017 at Raleigh, NC. If that conference occurs before the end of June (which it probably will), we will still be in our 20th anniversary year. So we could be celebrating our 20th Anniversary twice in a year. This is a great opportunity for the Project. Can you help? I certainly hope so. Please let me or Patrice Green (genealogy@cfl.rr.com) or any of our other AB members know that you can volunteer. Thanks so much.
