    1. HUMOR - "Free Money" FAKE Virus
    2. George W. Durman
    3. Since several of the HOAX stories concerning viruses in EMail have been going around lately, I thought this "notice" might be appropriate. IT IS A JOKE !!!!! Do NOT take this seriously !!!!! It is meant as sarcasm -- merely to point out how ridiculous the HOAX warnings are. Most of them are just about as "real" as this one. (GRIN) "Free Money" FAKE Virus: There is a computer virus that is being sent across the Internet. If you receive an e-mail message with the subject line "Free Money," DO NOT read the message. DELETE it immediately, UNPLUG your computer, then BURN IT to ASHES in a government-approved toxic waste disposal INCINERATOR. Once a computer is infected, it will be TOO LATE. Your computer will begin to emit a vile ODOR. Then it will secrete a foul, milky DISCHARGE. Verily, it shall SCREECH with the tortured, monitor-shattering SCREAM of 1,000 hell-scorched souls, drawing unwanted attention to your cubicle from co-workers and supervisors alike. After violently ripping itself from the wall, your computer will punch through your office window as it STREAKS into the night, HOWLING like a BANSHEE. Once free, it will spend the rest of its days TORTURING household PETS and MOCKING the POPE. Some filthy, disgusting miscreant ... some no-good, low-down, good-for-nothing DIRTY SNAKE, in twisted pursuit of his own sadistic dreams, is sending this virus across the Net via an e- mail entitled "Free Money." What is so terrifying about this virus is that you do not even to have to open the e-mail for it to activate. In fact, you do not even need to RECEIVE the e- mail. You do not even need to OWN a COMPUTER. "Free Money" can infect even minor HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES. How it does this with straight ASCII code is, frankly, a matter of some debate ... but BELIEVE YOU US, if this weren't a SERIOUS situation, we wouldn't be discussing it in ALL CAPS. So for the LOVE OF GOD, forward this e-mail to all those you claim to care about, all those you purport to love. Don't do it later! Do it NOW! Now! Now! NOW! NOW! NOW! Passed on to you by a friendly Listowner, SgtGeorge

    2. NCC Washington Update, vol. 3, # 34, August 6, 1997 by Page Putnam Miller, Director of the National Coordinating Committee for the Promotion of History <[email protected]> 2. House Report on National Archives and NHPRC 3. The Annual Report of the State Department Advisory Committee Identifies Barriers To opening the Historical Record 2. House Report on National Archives and NHPRC -- Although the House Appropriations Committee Report on the Treasury Appropriations bill has not yet been filed and printed, the Committee endorsed the report language that had been approved by the Treasury, General Government and Postal Service Appropriations Subcommittee. The report, accompanying the recommendation for FY'98 funding for the National Archives and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission, deals with the management of the National Archives, preservation funding, classification reform, repairs and restorations, and NHPRC grants. The House Subcommittee expressed concern about the Archives' management in several areas. The report states: "that NARA is showing reluctance in adapting to more modern, and less costly, alternatives to maintaining documents in paper form." Additionally the committee noted that the Archives' strategic plan "did not go far enough in developing milestones, conforming to new Government Performance and Results Act guidelines, and providing specifics about NARA's future." On preservation, the subcommittee urged the Archives to develop a five-year funding plan for preservation. The subcommittee repeated concerns expressed last year about classification reform and directed that Archivist to submit by February 1, 1998 an update of agency compliance with the declassification requirements of Executive Order 12958. The section focusing on the grants program of the NHPRC stated: "Recently, there has erupted a controversy over whether or not to emphasize prioritizing grants to Founding Father's' projects or preserving electronic records. The committee has provided sufficient funding to ensure the priorities of NHPRC are met. Within the funds provided, the NHPRC should maintain its historical funding prioritization of Founding Fathers' and documentary editing." 3. The Annual Report of the State Department Advisory Committee Identifies Barriers To Opening the Historical Record -- On July 28 Warren Kimball, the Chair of the State Department Advisory Committee on Historical Diplomatic Documentation, submitted to Secretary Madeleine Albright and to House and Senate Committees the committee's annual report. The report states that the Committee is "unconvinced by arguments from some agencies that secrecy for 30-year old information takes precedence over the value for the democracy of openness." The primary causes for the delays in publishing volumes 30 years after events must, the committee asserted "be laid at the doorstep of the intelligence community, primarily the Central Intelligence Agency." The report makes clear that the Committee does not advocate revealing secrets that would jeopardize national security or the safety of individuals; however, the report states that the CIA has failed to declassify documents pertaining to activities that have been revealed in Congressional hearings and in memoirs by CIA agents. This fall the Committee will consider the possibility of withholding from publication some compiled volumes that do not include relevant intelligence involvement and would thus "fall grossly short of a complete record." While the Committee acknowledges that efforts are underway to develop a better working relationship with the CIA, the Committee remains skeptical as to whether new procedures will improve the situation. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * NCC invites you to redistribute the NCC Washington Updates.

    1. Notice to JUNO Users - Why You Haven't Received Mail
    2. George W. Durman
    3. Well, Juno and RootsWeb have been having problems communicating again. In case some of you missed the last go 'round, here is the problem: When RootsWeb sends messages from the Lists to users at Juno, it usually takes a few seconds. Juno receives the mail and then sends an acknowledgement to RootsWeb and the connection is broken. As has happened twice now, Juno, for some reason, won't receive RootsWeb's mail right away and the connection stays open. While this is happening, RootsWeb can't receive mail or send out other mail. This time Juno held the connection for a long, long time and the folks at RootsWeb had to break the connection themselves so other business could go on. Don't know how long Juno hung up RootsWeb, but the last time it was for several hours. Anyway, the only recourse RootsWeb has is to remove ALL the addresses of Juno users until the problem at Juno is remedied. These addresses are removed from all the Lists, so you Juno users will get no messages while this is going on. Karen of RootsWeb sent out a message today saying that Juno appeared to be functioning properly again and that she had added all Juno addresses back to the Lists. If you didn't receive any mail for a while, that is the reason. You should be back on the Lists again. Sorry this has to happen, but until Juno gets some tweaking done to fix the problem, this may happen again. Now, I don't want any of you replying to my post here on the List, starting a new "flame" war over whether Juno was at fault or not. IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER! Juno wouldn't receive the mail, and wouldn't relinquish the connection, which hung up RootsWeb. I don't want to hear any arguments here on the List defending Juno and shifting the blame to RootsWeb. The folks at RootsWeb are knowledgeable enough to know what the problem is and if they say it is Juno's fault, let it be. You can email me privately, but, I say again, DO NOT start arguments here on the Lists about the problem. We have better things to do than argue over who is to blame. SgtGeorge

    1. BROYLES * SC --> AR
    2. MR WAYNE HICKS
    3. NOTE: Talley BROYLES married Hattie KAY. Hattie Kay was the daughter of Jerry KAY and Mary MATTISON. That is the source of the following note.... ======================================================== It is very frustrating at times when doing this family history research. For example, in 1860, the US Census didn't include the names of African Americans. Instead we have "slave schedules" which indicate the names of the slave owners and the number of slaves with the age, sex , and color (Black or Mulatto). A fellow 'rooter (Alice Ellingsberg) was kind enough to send me the slave schedule for 1860 from SC Anderson County. That is where two branches of my family tree (surnames KAY & BROYLES). I see that there were slave owners named: Charles KAY, Marvin KAY, William T. MATTISON (half-white son of an Irishman who turns out to be my gr-gr-gr-gr-grandfather), Mary MATTISON, Wyatt MATTISON, Samuel MATTISON, Hugh KAY, Mary KAY, and R.G. KAY. I gotta believe that one of these slaveowners owned Jerry KAY (my gr-gr-grandfather). Mary MATTISON married Jerry KAY. Likely that both of these forebearers are included in the slave schedule of 1860 SC Anderson Co. Unlikely that I will figure out which slaveowner had either/both of them . <sigh>. The veils of slavery are very difficult to uncover..... peace, -=[Wayne]=- "To name something is to wait for it in the place you think it will pass." -- Amira Baraka

    1. Unwanted Attachments; FROM LISTOWNER
    2. George W. Durman
    3. I think I have covered the problem caused by users of Mozilla and Microsoft Internet Mail, relating to unwanted attachments. Now a new one shows up. Seems some users have taken advantage of a relatively new "toy", called "vCards". In case some of you are wondering what some of the new unwanted attachments are, when they are downloaded, there will be a description with "vCard" in the line. A "vCard" is just an electronic "business card". It's as though every time a person sends a letter through the postal service, they stick a business card in the envelope. Except, here on the Internet, it comes as one of those insidious "attachments". I can under- stand a business person wanting to stick a business card on the end of every email, but for the life of me I can't understand why anyone would be so vain as to want to stick one on with every email they send. I mean, personal mail, mail to Lists, etc. That is just vanity, pure and simple. My suggestion to all you users. I believe we can convince the guilty parties to stop it if we reply to their posts and make sure we attach the file back to the reply. Make sure you send it to the sender via private email, NOT back to the List. Please, I don't want to see hundreds of messages back to the List with attachments. BE SURE you send to the poster of the original message. If several hundred of us do this, I believe the senders will soon see that it is in their best interest to stop sending their vCards out as attachments. Dang it, it seems that as soon as we solve one problem, someone comes up with a new twist to disrupt the Net. I think that most users just don't consider the consequences of their actions. Or, maybe they do and just don't care. Well, I think we can make them care if we show them what an annoyance the attachments are. Your Listowner, SgtGeorge

    1. SPAM from the "Toner Man"
    2. George W. Durman
    3. To all subscribers of the Lists I manage: First and foremost -- DO NOT reply to SPAM messages to the Lists! It is being taken care of. Secondly, and equally as important -- DO NOT post messages to the Lists about this subject !!!!! You just do not know what is going on behind the scenes -- I'm up to my ears in unread email right now. If you MUST comment on the SPAM problem, send me a private email. DO NOT POST ANY MESSAGE TO THE LISTS IN RELATION TO THIS SUBJECT !!!!!! (Thanks.) Now, some of you may know, and some may not, that we were hit last night by the $%#&$&@* from Atlanta, GA, that crashed MAISER at Indiana University. He has evidently "found" our Lists on RootsWeb and sent out the same SPAM advertisements that he did at MAISER. Some Lists got hit and some didn't. If you didn't get the garbage, consider yourself lucky. Basically, what he did is send a long ad for his "toner" products to all the Lists at RootsWeb. There are probably 2,000 Lists there now, and if each averages 200 users, that's 400,000 individual emails that RootsWeb would have had to store and process, then send out. That's what crashed MAISER. It just couldn't handle it and froze up, after one hard drive had been physically destroyed. Actually, I received 6 duplicate messages on the HOMESPUN List, and 3-5 on some of the others. It is not at all inconceivable that were the spammer totally successful that RootsWeb would have to handle a million messages all at the same time. That would not be pretty!! BE WARNED !!!!! I am asking RootsWeb to re-configure my Lists so that only subscribers may post email to them. This may cause problems for some users who have "dynamic" email addresses. Some servers can't seem to settle down and decide on a domain name, so users addresses keep changing. If any of you have problems posting to the Lists after the changeover, I will receive the posts instead of them going to the Lists. I will get in touch with anyone who is having problems. I will try to keep everyone informed on what is going on. Just be patient and remember, DO NOT send ANY email to the Lists concerning SPAM, "Toner Man", or this problem in general.

    2. Karen Isaacson
    3. The message below is from Karen Isaacson at RootsWeb. She sent it out to us Listowners just before 11:00 this morning (Tuesday). I had not forwarded it because I thought things would be back up and working before now. Since I have had some queries on this, thought I should send it out to all you subscribers. Of course you won't receive this until RootsWeb is back up again, but at least you will know what went wrong. SgtGeorge *************** (Start of quoted message.) One of the hard drives on lists.rootsweb.com (our main mailing list machine) is ailing this morning. It's =not= the drive with your mailing lists, that drive is fine. But Brian is going to have the system down most of the day while trying to salvage what he can from the failing drive, so you won't be able to access your utility pages, messages won't be flowing through your lists (they'll be spooled in a safe place until the system is up), etc. Brian didn't give me an estimate on how long this would take. Hopefully not all day... Karen (End of quoted message.) ***********************

    1. NOTE: From Listowner
    2. George W. Durman
    3. Just a short note to my Lists. On a couple of my larger Lists, some users are copying messages and passing on to their friends. Don't get me wrong, there's absolutely no problem with this. It's just that the recipients are missing a lot if they are not subscribed themselves. I just wanted to ask you to urge your friends to subscribe so they can get the messages first-hand. I feel that when people are users, they tend to participate and this leads to a lot more information being shared. That's what the Lists are all about, sharing. Also, if you reply to a post, unless it is purely personal, you can send the reply back to the List where we can all see it. I have picked up lots of important genealogy information by reading the exchange of data on the Lists. This is espec- ially true on the SURNAME Lists. You never know when some "lurker" will find the very name and data he or she has been looking for. Have a nice day, SgtGeorge Listowner

    1. Sending Attachments to the Lists
    2. George W. Durman
    3. Guess it's time once again to send a gentle reminder about attachments to your email. As you all should know, if you have read the Welcome Messages that come when you subscribe, attachments are not allowed on the Lists. This rule is necessitated due to the fact that some users's email programs just absolutely freak out from attachments, especially large ones. Besides, it is very rare that all the subscribers to a List need to receive any attachment. They generally benefit only one or a few subscribers. Here's how it works: If you have an attachment you want to send, notify the List, stating the subject, generally what it contains, and how large it is in bytes. Inform the List that you will gladly send it to individual users' email addresses if they request it. AND, the request should go to you personally, not back to the List. Now a note to users of Mozilla and Microsoft email programs. These two products are notorious for taking the text in the body of a message, converting it to HTML, and then attaching it as a separate file to the email. This is caused because when the program was installed, the default configuration was HTML and it should have been "plain text". We get attachments from many users who do not know they are sending them. Some, when notified, vehemently argue that they are NOT sending attachments. They just don't know they are. If you are using Mozilla or a Microsoft email program (especially Microsoft Internet Mail), PLEASE check your configuration and make sure you have set "plain text", not "HTML". This will solve many problems on the Lists. And to the rest of you subscribers, when you receive an unwanted attachment, before you angrily blast the sender, look in the header section of the message and see if there is a line "X-Mailer". Look at that line and see if Mozilla or Microsoft show up there. If so, then chances are about 99.99% that the user hasn't changed the configuration. Instead of flaming him or her, gently remind that the configuration should be changed. These inadvertent attachments are usually very small, just a few bytes, and cause no problems to anyone's email program due to their small size; however, they are a genuine nuisance and can be taken care of, IF the sender will take the time and trouble to change the settings of the email program. Just remember, no attachments to the Lists. If you have some- thing that you feel would benefit everyone, type it into the body of the message, rather than making it an attachment. If it is long, make 2 or 3 messages and identify them as Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, etc. SgtGeorge Listowner

    3. Alice & others, Mary BROYLES was born in Virginia abt. 1795. I think that she is my great-great-great-grandmother. One of her sons was Robert BROYLES. Robert was born in South Carolina. It is our supposition that Mary was part of the property of slaveowners named Broyles that moved from Virginia to SC Anderson County. A fellow 'rooter (Sonia Walker) was kind enough to send me an excerpt from a publication called "Pendleton District and Anderson County, SC; Wills, Estates, Inventories , Tax Returns, and Census Records" compiled by Virginia Alexander and two others. One of the cites in this publication is the appraisal bill on the personal estate of A. Broyles (Is this Aaron Broyles??). Dec'd Dec 12, 1845.

[These names run together]. A second citation is a sale bill from the estate of A. Broyles [Aaron??? ?] Dec'd. Sold Dec 17-19, 1845. ......I'll skip most of this and get to the part that is of interest to this subject title...
