It's freeware, although they'll take donations. I run it every few weeks and it does a decent job of letting you know what cookies and registry entries have been made on your PC and gives you the choice of getting rid of them. It has a nice "undo that" function if you find you deleted something that was useful. See http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html I'd say if you have kids around that download games or anything, having a spyware checker is a must. While we're off-topic on tools, I also just switched to the new Firefox browser. It seems to do a better job than either Internet Explorer or Netscape in blocking pop-ups. Dave Larkin

The complete text of James Goodsell's ”History of the Great Chicago Fire, October 8, 9, and 10, 1871.” Published 1871 by J.H. and C.M. Goodsell (25 pages, including a map of the area affected by the fire) On Dearborn street stood The Times and The Journal newspaper offices, the Dearborn theatre, and a considerable number of banks and large office blocks La Salle street was built up with many of the finest buildings to be found in the city. It was largely occupied by insurance agents, real estate brokers, lawyers, etc. Between Washington and Randolph streets, stood the court-house, which, of course, shared the general ruin. These details are only given to aid the reader in obtaining a proximate idea of the losses. Little was saved except from those houses which were not attacked by the flames until several hours after it was seen to be inevitable that the city was doomed. Immense quantities of goods were piled upon lake park and on the grounds of the Chicago Base Ball club—pyramids of clothing, boots and shoes, dry goods, and furniture from the houses of the rich dwellers along Michigan avenue—all of which fell a prey to the destroyer. THE LOSS OF LIFE The loss of life, though smaller than could have been predicted in such an extended and such a rapid fire, can yet never be fully estimated. There have been charred remains at the morgue which were almost unrecognizable as human bodies, and as the ruins are lying from two to ten feet deep in places, it is impossible to say how many have been buried under them. The fact that but few of those who are prominently known are missing, must not lead any to believe that there have not been many lost who would be missed only by an exceedingly small circle of friends, too obscure themselves to attract much attention. The greatest loss of life was in the north division among the wooden buildings where the billows of fire rolled along so rapidly that the victims were engulphed before they were aware that the fire had reached their neighborhood. The flames often jumped two or three blocks at once, as was the case at the water works and Lill's brewery, which were on fire a long time before any of the adjoining buildings. At the waterworks one man crawled into a 20-inch pipe, which was lying in the street, and was burned to a crisp.

Actually, Bette, one can make a very useful medical pedigree chart for a single disease by simply using the Descendant Tree button on the Tool Bar of Family Tree Maker. Then you can show affected individuals by coloring their individual rectangles with a highlighter and write the names of diseases and/or causes of death beside each affected individual.

RootsWeb Review had this site for some burials of PA Civil War Vets. PENNSYLVANIA. Lehigh County. Allentown. Lists the names of all Civil War veterans buried in the Union and West End Cemeteries in this locality. There are more than 650 veterans buried in these two cemeteries, which abut one another and appear, for all intents and purposes, to be a single cemetery. The rank and unit designation for each soldier is shown, when available. A brief history of the units raised in Lehigh County during the Civil War is included along with a listing of all units activated from Pennsylvania. http://www.rootsweb.com/~paalncem/ This is a wonderful web site if you have ancestors from PA even if none of them are buried here. Lots of good historical information. Bette ____________________________________________ Check out the Bunker Family Association. http://www.bunkerfamilyassn.org.

To all our veterans, thank you. To all the families of veterans, thank you. To all the people serving in the armed forces today, thank you. To all their families, thank you. Bette RootsWeb Review had the following in it this week. ARMISTICE DAY. On November 11, 1918, the Allied powers signed a cease- fire agreement with Germany at Rethondes, France, bringing World War I to a close. Between the world wars, November 11 was commemorated as Armistice Day in the United States, Great Britain, and France. After World War II, the holiday was recognized as a day of tribute to veterans of both world wars. In 1954 the United States designated November 11 as Veterans Day to honor veterans of all U.S. wars. http://www1.va.gov/opa/feature/celebrate/vetday.htm REMEMBRANCE DAY.

5 Ways to Chart & Display Your Family Tree from Kimberly Powell While tracing your ancestry back as far as possible is fun, it's even better when you can present the findings in a handsome family tree chart. From hand-drawn genealogy charts to computer generated ancestor trees, there are many different ways to chart and display your family history. 1) Create it Yourself If you want to create something personal, and your family is fairly small, then consider creating your own family tree. You can draw the basic connections in a line-and-box format, or get more creative by embellishing with vines, flowers, etc. You can also display the family in an actual tree format, using the roots for descendants and leaves (or apples) for the ancestors. Can't draw a straight line? Try SmartDraw, http://shorl com/babasoluproro, (free trial available) to create any chart you can imagine.
