Hi! I haven't received a thing from COMESA for days. Where has everyone gone?? Janis

Things are getting a little better on the lists, and I suppose that with school starting and less vacationers, it will continue to improve, but we are still getting a quantity of bounced messages. Please make sure that you unsubscribe, if possible before changing providers/servers. If you think that your mailbox might overfill while you are gone vacationing or otherwise, please unsubscribe and resubscribe when you return. Lastly remember, when posting a message use the XXXX-L@rootsweb.com address when subscribing or unsubscribing, please use XXXX-L (or D)-request@rootsweb.com Thank you so much, these lists have really been great! We will be heading home this evening so it will be a couple of days before I can get back online. :-( I have to leave our new grandson! :-( Teri --------------------------------------- Terry (Phil 4:13) Teri (Ps 37:5) Lancaster, OH pastor751@greenapple.com http://www.greenapple.com/~pastor751 A memorial page for Troy 1975-1997 TREASURES-a helpful page with a little of everything http://www.rootsweb.com/~mtwheatl/index.html http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnisanti/Isanti/ http://www.rootsweb.com/~cosanmig/ http://www.rootsweb.com/~comontro/index.html http://www.rootsweb.com/~codolore/index.html

I decided that there were so many that approved of the action that I would just close the list now. All messages that are posted, are now posted by "members". I hopes this helps.

I have responded to the advertisers and requested that they not use the list again. If we get anymore of this, I will close the list to "members" only.

Hi All, I was at the library and came across a surname exchange done by Vernetta M Guild, who lived and then died in Delta, Co. Her maiden name was Longwell. The exchange gave this info: Longwell given: Lottie E Dodson Clay, Mo 1860's submitted: Vernetta M Guild April 1982 Would anyone know who Lottie E Dodson was, and anyone have any Guild's or possibly Longwell's in their surname lists? Thanks and have a great night! Carol Longwell Miller

Hi! I was wondering if there would be someone that would see if they could find an obit for Mary PENROSE KENYON. I have that she passed away Nov 2, 1882 while visiting her daughter, Myraette (Mrs. Robert) Shropshire at Grand Junction. I really would appreciate it! Mary was my grgrgrandmother. Thanks! Janis

I am looking for a news obit for either Montrose or GJ. The title is DEATH OF MRS. GEORGE SLY. She died May 18, 1928 so it must have been soon after that. She died in LA, CA, but thus was written for the "friends and relatives in this section". They had lived in Montrose county. I would like to obtain a better copy as well as the date of publication, etc. Can you help?

I grew up in Montrose and it's environs and want to contact anyone who might still be around who would have graduated from Montrose County High School in 1961. Joan Weller, who moved to Durango before the 9th grade is on the list. Tim Bailey, Jerry Ray(who actually graduated from a HS in Grand Junction was in the class of '59) I know Buddy Keltz, Dorothy Abrahamson are still around there. If you know anything about this please contact me.....Howvicks@aol.com

Hi! I am still on the search for any Longwell's or maybe Guild's that lived in that area and not too long ago. They are descendants of my gr gr grandfather, James E Longwell. One of his son's name was Frederick. I know that Frederick had a daughter named Vernetta and she married Omar Guild and lived in Delta and Montrose areas. Frederick had moved to that area about 1900. Anyone knowing of anyone with those names, I would love to be in correspondance with them! Thank you! Carol Longwell Miller

I know these lists are typically used for learning of those who have passed from this earth, but I need help in locating still living. I am looking for a man named Darrell Ellis. I am told that he is interested in genealogy and may have some answers to questions I have about the Montezuma County area. It is believed that he still resides in the Mancos or Cortez area. His mother (Fern D. Ellis) was the author of a wonderful book about the Mancos area, titled, Come Back To My Valley. I have been told that she is residing in an area nursing home. Although I know this is an unusual request, any help in locating this man would be very appreciated. Thank you. Sherry Morefield Gregg

This is a fairly slow list and not much traffic. Maybe that is a blessing?? I am hoping to announce some materials for lookups in a couple of weeks as I go through some of these counties collecting things. If nothing else, I will have some pictures to share on the Montrose, San Miguel and Dolores counties. Right now, we're busy taking pictures of the new grandson!
