I'm a member of the very large tree you mention by way of his son Ripley COPELAND...I have heard that there were several Nicholas COPELANDs in the Virginia area in the early to mid-1700s but I have not had the time to research further than my gr-gr-gr grandfather Ripley COPELAND. Ripley's father was Nicholas...I believe I've read that this COPELAND line not only moved into NC/SC but also into AL, MS, and LA. But my line is here in SC...

Good Evening Everyone, This is Emma - your temp. admin. I do apologize for having to send this to the list. I really don't want to get a discussion going on challenge spam filters so this is really an FYI message. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns please contact me at enc6@aol.com. But... someone on the list has set up a challenge response spam filter. So if you send a message to the list you will probably receive a message telling you that in order for that person to receive your mail you must go to the URL provided in the message and follow directions to be "whitelisted". Unfortunately, the message does not list the address of the person originating the e-mail. I am working to find that out. Should you receive such an e-mail it is certainly your choice whether to respond or not. But.... Please know that challenge spam filters do not work well with mail lists. Please also know that I - as an individual and as a list admin - do not respond to challenge spam filter requests. Most other admins feel the same way. I appreciate your patience and am working on dealing with the concern. Thank you so much - Emma
