I've received negative replies after FORWARDING the message [that follows at the end of this one] to all the genealogy lists I belong to! One man emailed me saying that a teacher unsubscribed from a list because I posted it! If you have no use for a particular post to a group, just hit the delete key. That's so easy and that's what I do. I merely forwarded what Julia sent to one of the genealogy lists I'm on. I had her email address right at the top of the email and her name at the very bottom. I thought it was an interesting message worth passing on. Lisa ~~~ Visit my pages: http://www.homepagez.com/neb/index.html --- From: <FamRSearch@aol.com> Not mispelled - just spelled differently. It is hard for those of us in the 20th century education to understand that before the social security system (1930's) and driver's license (1920's) people did not have an attachment to the spelling of a name. The name was spelled however the person writing down wanted to spell it. In fact it was a sign of an educated person to be able to spell a name several ways and you will find this in some deeds where there may be 5 or 6 different spellings in the same document. In one class I went to a lecturer had a deed the spelled the man's name 11 different ways. It was said, reportedly by an early President that "I would not trust a lawyer who could spell a name only one way." This was because if he was not educated enough to spell a name several ways, he was probably not a very good lawyer. SO don't say mispelled as that implies a mistake, it was just spelled differently.

I have noticed that many people on the lists are becoming extremely rude... The lists are so quiet, it's nice to know someone is on them...:) Charlotte ----- Original Message ----- From: Lisa Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 12:07 PM To: COATS-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [COATS] re: surnames misspelled I've received negative replies after FORWARDING the message [that follows at the end of this one] to all the genealogy lists I belong to!

I am happy to announce a new list at Rootsweb. The ORPHAN-TRAINS Discussion List is for the discussion of the ORPHAN TRAINS that carried thousands of children to new homes in any and all states and anything pertaining to them covering the time periods of 1850's to 1930. Discussions pertaining to anything related to these children, circumstances, finding their families, history of these trains, etc. are encouraged. To join ORPHAN-TRAINS-L, send mail to ORPHAN-TRAINS-L-request@rootsweb.com with the single word subscribe in the message subject and body. It is not necessary to subscribe in both modes. To join ORPHAN-TRAINS-D, do the same thing with ORPHAN-TRAINS-D-request@rootsweb.com There is an ORPHAN-TRAINS List home page where you can review the list rules and guidelines and find links to related sites. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~irishrose/orphan-trains-l.htm

Subscribe

This is being sent out to all of my lists to let you know about a problem RootsWeb began experiencing in the last couple of days that is causing some valid subscribers to not receive posts to lists he/she subscribes to. When a post is not delivered to a subscriber, it is "bounced" to the List Admin (that's me) for information. When a certain bounce threshold is reached within a given period of time, that subscriber is dropped from the list as no longer active. Normally this is good, because it purges the lists of people who change ISPs without notifying us, or are otherwise not receiving e-mail. In this case,however, it is due to certain ISPs who have installed spam filters and are listing RootsWeb on their reject list erroneously. In a few cases, some RootsWeb mail is getting through, and some is not, but in all cases when a subscriber reaches a given number of bounces, his subscription is terminated automatically by the servers. If you have a personal spam filter installed like "Spamcop" or others, or if your ISP has one installed to do it for you,then you are a possible candidate to have your RootsWeb mail cut off without notice. For now, please just keep an eye on the volume of mail you get. If you have a sudden drop in mail, try to subscribe to the list once again. If you are still subscribed, you should (hopefully) receive a notice to that effect. If you are not on the list any longer, your subscription attempt will be accepted and you will be put back on the list. You may also write to me privately if you would like me to check it for you, but please understand that with having 10 lists that I manage I cannot possibly do everyone manually so I would ask that you try it yourself first. I thank you in advance for your cooperation in this regard. I do not even know if this message will get to everyone, but hopefully it will. If there are any questions, please feel free to contact me off the list. RootsWeb is working to resolve this problem with the people who control the spam filters, and hopefully it will be resolved before too many more people are dropped from the lists.

Almon Coats or Almond Coates, married Nancy Clark at Angelica, Allegany Co., NY in 1840. Lived in Friendship, Allegany Co, NY in Census in 1840. Later was in Civil War, enlisted at Crystal Lake, IL. Lived in NY, OH, IL. Family then split and some to MN and some to NE. Children were Walter, Albert, Clark, Florence. Would like to find parents or siblings of Almon or Nancy. Haven't been able to find any clues. Any help appreciated!
