Here! Alice Allen

Custer County here. RFK

Thought I had a person with Kit Carson ancestors who could take it over (not trying to get out of work, but she would have more interest - and I could take on poor orphaned Logan County). But she wrote that she had a disability affecting her capacity to do it, so she demurred. Added some school lists to Kit Carson and Washington from the ColoradoHistoricNewspapers.org Yuma was more interesting. The primary creator of Bugs Bunny, Foghorn Leghorn, and the Tasmanian Devil lived in both Wray and Yuma - Robert McKimson Added a 1922 list of School Boards Added a 1922 list of Eighth Grade graduates Added a 1917 list of draftees Added a 1899 list of Wray absences

Sedgwick and Larimer here.

Still here. Nothing exciting happening. --don stanwyck

I'm here - nothing new to report Pat

Checking in for January. I'll be spending the next week finishing up the repair of broken links on El Paso, otherwise nothing new to report. I wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous 2012 !! Colleen

Happy New Year everyone................ another year to look forward too. Gail -- It's not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived!

Congress, in its short-sightedness, doesn't seem to realize that doing away with the online SSDI will allow more identity thefts to occur, as many banks, credit card companies, etc., use the SSDI to double-check for fraudulent applications.

Wow! That is major...You know that if folks are going to be using it for identity theft, then they aren't going to care about the small monthly amount it will cost them. That is a big blow to free geneaology!
