I am a Harkey researcher. I lived in Oxnard /Port Hueneme area for 43 years from October 18, 1942 until July 1985. I attended Haydock, Roosevelt, Wilson Jr Hi and Oxnard High School graduated in 1953. I have the year books from Oxnard High from 1950 to 1953. There were other Harkey families who lived in Ventura in the 1920's they were distantly related. If anyone wishes to talk about those years in Oxnard and what they were like or if you went to school with Mary Alice Harkey who married Thomas Russell in 1953. Please write. I am living in Kentucky now. Mary Harkey Russell bird@glasgow-ky.com http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~bird

Hello veterans and newbies of the rootsweb. There are some really great folks who are willing to help just for the asking. I, myself do Volunteer research at Andersonville Civil War Prison in Andersonville Georgia. I know that California was not closely involved in the war here on the East coast, but I do know that many soldiers and families went West following the conflict including a few of my ancestors.. Any research I do is absolutely at NO cost and I am willing to do what I can. There are 41771 prisoners on record from the Union Regiments who were held here and 12960 who died here . Of these, only 460 are marked as Unknown. I thought I would send my offer to this site as I have gotten many request from California researchers in the 3 years I have been doing my work here at Andersonville.. I feel the need to say I am not in anyway trying to focus on the horrors of Andersonville compared to any POW camp in the north ..( i.e.Elmira ) or any others and do not wish to stir up arguments on this site. My focus is dedicated to ALL of those held prisoner during this war , on both sides as well as all Americans who gave their freedoms for those that we enjoy today.. I just happen to be near Andersonville so this is where I do my work Here are my sources of research. There are 2 online databases to do lookups.....One by name...one by Company and Regiment. I also have a copy of the Dorence Atwater Death list which has the names and grave numbers of 12960 graves with only 460 marked as " UNKNOWN " This along with a CD I have which contains 34,000 names of the 45,000 who were imprisoned there which helps me find prisoner records because of misspellings of the names or alternate names. I visit the prison site every couple of weeks and have access to the onsite databases as well as the physical files. I would like to let you know of another service I offer which is to take photos of graves for a small fee. Please do not consider this spam as my research offer is FREE for the asking and will be posted on this county site only once. If there is anything I can do in helping your research at Andersonville, please just ask. Please visit my website dedicated to those Americans who were imprisoned and died in captivity while in the service to our country Kevn Frye Local Andersonville Historian / National Park Service Volunteer http://www.angelfire.com/ga2/Andersonvilleprison/index.html AOL USERS go to http://hometown.aol.com/andersonvillecw/

Lowe, daughter of Ida May Lowe who passed away on July 6, 1992 at the Los Robles Med. Center. Her father, Ira Charles Lowe, passed away on Oct 2, 1954 in St. Louis. Ida took Carol Jane to California shortly after. I am sure that Carol grew up in or around your area and muct have attended school there. The last I heard, she was married to a guy named "Joe" and had a son named "Kevin". Some of you may have attended school with her. Her mother, Ida May, lived in the area for 37 years. Take 37 years from 1992 and you get 1955, one year after Ira C. died. Carol would have been 7, 8 or 9 years old then. Ida May worked as Secretary for the Retail Clerks Union Benefit Fund for 20 years. It is very important that I locate Carol so any clues you can provide will be a help. Thank You very much...Ray
