Surnames: GRIFFITH and FLEMING Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/GW.2ADE/1040 Message Board Post: My great great uncle's daughter, Julia Ellen FLEMING, married a Michael GRIFFITH sometime between 1917 and 1928 in Fresno, CA. All I know about Michael is that he was a lawyer. I don't know whether he died shortly after the marriage OR whether there was a divorce. Julia seemed to be pretty much on her own and died in Fresno in May 1968. Anyone with more information, please let me know. I don't think there were any children from this marriage.

Good question. Aside from the atrocious pay for a professional job, this has nothing to do with genealogy. ALSO, just to be conspiratorial, this sound like a possible source of the personal data that was put on the Tulare and Kern lists a few days ago, apparently just to embarrass someone. Also it came through ancestry.com too. It's time somebody there asks some questions. Lew Howell ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Hello listers: I am researching Agnes (PATTERSON) ENFIFE, and / or her descendants. She may have moved from St. Louis, Missouri some time after 1918. I believe she may have died in the Fresno area. In the October 1918 obit of her mother (Elizabeth PATTERSON), it has her living in the St. Louis area, St. Louis County, Missouri. Agnes was born in Saratoga Township (or the Morris area), Grundy County, Illinois to Robert and Elizabeth Patterson. She lived for a time in the Morris area, Grundy County, Illinois. Agnes then may have moved to Spring Valley, Bureau County, Illinois with her family. Agnes would be my great aunt, a sister to my ggrandfather. Can anyone tell me if there is a web site for births, marriages and deaths for the state of California? Also access to drivers licenses records for people who have died? I would appreciate any help Thanks in advance Bill Patterson [email protected]

Here's wishing everyone a Joy-filled Easter. There's new things that have showed up at eBay auctions for Fresno county related material. Yearbooks, postcards, a dish from the old Hotel Fresno set, believe it or not, a wonderful Sanger Jubilee publication, plus more.

Hi all; This has been a hectic week. As many of you have noticed, there is a note on the website regarding some problems we were having with our tables. We have found a solution and Aaron, Steve and Laura are working on it as fast as they can, but these files are large and all have to be reformated and then uploaded again to the site. This is taking a little bit of time. Please be patient and it will be worth it. The new updated information will be not only Internet Explorer friendly, but Netscape friendly as well. I don't know about the WebTV situation yet. We will have to wait and see. In the meantime, the transcriptionists are working like little beavers on the continuation of the batches. Based on the information that I have, when the site is back to full capacity again the following will be added to the site as completed: Kern County San Bernardino County Book Two Humboldt County Book Two San Luis Obispo County A-N Possibly Santa Barbara County Modoc County Placer County And about 30 batches of San Francisco County There could even be more by then as well. As you can tell, we are progressing, even though the website is being revamped for past problems. We have also distributed the following counties for work to begin on Transcription: Part of Fresno County Shasta County Del Norte County Lake County Part of Sierra County Part of Mono County Part of Santa Cruz County And lots more of San Francisco County ALSO, although it will be awhile before we get to them, we are in the process of starting to collect marriage and birth records for some of the counties so that we will have them when the deaths are completed. PLEASE, do not ask for lookups. We are going as fast as we can to get these online and cannot do lookups and maintain our current speed of work. We will NOT do lookups regardless of your reasoning. Please be patient. We are working as fast as our fingers will go. Some BAD NEWS.... It appears as if there are no records available for El Dorado County. Rumor has it that one of the employees ran off with the records and sold them, but we have no access to them. Also, these records were NOT filmed by the LDS church either so getting that won't work either. We had heard they were at the Huntington Library, but have learned that is not the case either. We may be able to get some records, but they will be minimal at this point in time. Some GOOD NEWS.... We have somebody checking into the availability of the Ventura County records and should know in the not too distant future what is going on here and if we can get access. Say lotsa prayers and keep your fingers crossed. These records are also NOT filmed by the LDS church either. Sooooo, as you can tell, with all these changes going on, life has definitely been hectic on the pre-1905 project. Keep an eye on the site to see the changes come about. When all is said and done with the upgrades, we will also have sources listed on the site for your reference. Just be patient. We are listening to you all and your comments...the fix-its just don't happen overnight. Donations to the project are still needed and can be sent to me at the address below. Volunteers to transcribe are also appreciated. Just contact me. Thank you all for your support on this project. It definitely has been there for us and I hope we can continue to comply with your needs by getting these records to you as fast as possible. Donna Bradley Pre-1905 Project Coordinator P. O.
