Dear Cousins, Because of hectic upcoming vacation schedules and a huge pile of catch-up work to do in the genealogy line (i.e., a year's worth of journals to read and two year's of back journal material that I need to add but haven't had time for), I am leaving my surname lists until after the holidays. It seems that the further I go ahead, the more behind I get! So I decided I need to really take a "leave of absence" and get myself somewhat organized (I periodically do this . . . it lasts about two weeks before I start digging myself another hole!). Please don't hesitate to contact me personally if you wish - I just need to cut down the busy activity of my six surname lists and such to make more room in my increasingly demanding schedule to get some of this primary grunt work out of the way. However, don't forget to let me know of any major revelations that you uncover (like, are the Breedloves Irish, English or ???)! My best to you all and have a wonderful holiday season. See you back on the list in 2000! Linda
