Marvin, Are there any Hirtzel folks in the index? Are there any Reichle folks? Any Gotzinger folks? Thanks very much. best, Paul

What I did as soon as I subscribed was to make a folder [BW]. All of these emails go there automatically. I scan down through to see any relevance for me and delete at my option. Very neat and easy.

I hope this goes through. All of my emails trying to thank the people that have responded to my question, have been sent back to me. So thanks to everyone who replied to my question. Jerrian

To follow up on Craig's suggestion: Another option to too many emails is to create a separate account (hotmail, yahoo, juno, aol or something else free) just for your list-serves or just for specific research. I do this for some things. Then it's all in one place and you can deal with it as you have time to, and it's separate from the rest of your life, and you can wholesale DELETE by various subjects. Just a thought.

Hello Russ, did you miss my mail with entries from the Grossherzoglich Badisches Anzeigeblatt for - Heinrich Lipp whose was wanted or was having his wanted notice withdrawn in 1849 Heinrich Carl Lipp from Sinsheim born 1824 who did not report for military duty in 1849 (Page 54) and Johann Adam Lipp from Sinsheim born 1825 who did not report for military duty in 1849 (page 55) Is this last one your ancestor? Or did I miss your mail? Jon

Barbara, did you mean Schreiner. It is a much more common surname Jon

Hi Chris, Johann Hasenstab from Sinsheim born 1825 didn´t report for army duty in 1850. (Many didn´t after the revolutions) I can send you a scan of the entry if you wish. Jon

Would you be willing to check the names: Ranz, Engle, Engler, Ruf/Ruef/Ruff? Thank you! Marilyn Washington, DC

Hello James, I have Schaefer entries for - Philipp Anton from Steinsfurth deserted from army Martin from Marlon deserted from army Agnes Christoph Ernst Franz Joseph from Ketsch born 1824 Friedrich Gustav from Kuppenheim born 1827 Johann Ludwig Joseph (4 entries) Karolina Klemens from Muggensturm born 1824 Mathias Nepomuk and family emigrated 1847 Simon from Kuppenheim born 1824 Valentin from Iffezheim born 1827 Schaefer is unfortunately fairly common. Most were wanted or went bankrupt. I can send you more information if any are of interest. Jon

Marvin, Thank you for the look-up. Jacob continues to be elusive. Thanks for your generosity!

No rush, i know where both of these ended up; just curious where they came from. 1)Lawrence Seifert or Siefert, born 1803, emigrated from Wurttemberg before 1840. 2) Christian BAUER born 1835 Wurttemberg, married Eva? in Holzelfingen, Reutlingen 1851, emigrated shortly thereafter.

Could you please check to see if the names Hucke, Prechtel or Baechner appear? Thank you! Sandra Sowers

You may not have any particular interest in the names that are being posted, and find it annoying to have your email inbox overflowing with posts. But someday you might discover a new name in your family history and one way to look for info on a new name is to go to archives and punch in a search. All of the matches from the search requests that have been submitted thus far will show up in the results, and you will not only have the info Marvin found, but a link to the person who requested it. With all the requests being submitted privately, the very name you might be seeking will never show up.

There are mixed opinions of off-list and on-list. Many times I have seen list users ask that information be on-list so that everyone could benefit from the conversation. If the data is not shared with the list then only one person benefits from the result of the conversation. Genealogical information should be shared with anyone who requests it. If is sad, that to some, this conversation clutters up the genealogy list. Mike Singer -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marvin Hoerig Sent: Monday, March 19, 2012 9:19 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [BW] RAAB Index Hello List, I have been requested to take the prisoner look-ups off list. Apparently, we have offended some people by cluttering the list with this ongoing thread. In the past I received requests for look-ups on both the list and my private email. This time, I neglected to include my private email in offering to do look-ups. My bad - - I apologize. I think the BW list is one of the finest lists I have seen and would not want to offend anyone; least of all our administrators who do such a fine job. Unfortunately, I thought that getting surnames out in the open would afford more opportunities to connect with long lost relatives. Perhaps, even knock down a brick wall or two and find that elusive, "Place of Birth" for an ancestor. We will loose those opportunities with all our surnames hidden away in private email boxes. That's sad ! So, in the future, I will continue to do look-ups for anyone that sends me a surname, BUT, only if they are sent to my private email. I will not respond to any requests for look-ups sent to the BW list, either past , present, or future. If I haven't answered your request as yet, please re-send it again to: [email protected] As before, the best requests have a single surname with several spelling variations, a given name, and any other information that may make the search easier. To the list administrators; if you find that the BW list is falling asleep, let me know and I'll be glad to liven it up again. To the complainers; I apologize to you but suggest you invest in a delete key.
