( ) .-.,--^--. _ Good Morning Cook Cousins \\| `---' |// Come on in the coffee pot's on \| / _\___/_ Good Morning Family, A big welcome to our new members. Before long you will know everyone and feel comfortable. We are a unique group of people. We cry together and we laugh together, as we are truly one big happy family. The best part about us is the way we help each other. If you are new to the Internet, or new to genealogy, please do ask questions. Someone in this group has an answer to help you. We are all eager to see who your Cook's were so when you are ready, do post them. Please put your names and STATE in the subject line. You want everyone to know what's inside. :) I'm still on my band stand talking about the state project. Once I got the idea to start this, I will not give up until every state is covered! I don't care how long it takes. :) I wish you would go look at Roberta's North Carolina page. <A HREF="http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/4665/ncstate.html"> North Carolina</A> http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/4665/ncstate.html She's coming up with some sites to help make your searching in this state easier. She has a big heart and want's to share with others on this list so they can find their lost Cook. This is what genealogy is all about and what the Cook discussion list is all about. We are here to find our Cook's and help each other find theirs. This is how we find new cousins. :) Won't you join in with Roberta and start a state? But you say you don't know how to make a web page... well, there isn't anyone on this list that knows how that wouldn't help you start one. :) We all had to learn how...I can't say enough how much this project will help us all in the long run. While you are visiting Roberta's page take a look at my Oklahoma page. <A HREF="http://members.aol.com/CookCooke/stateoklahoma.html"> OKLAHOMA</A> http://members.aol.com/CookCooke/stateoklahoma.html We are both open to new ideas you might have for us.
