I would venture to say that MOST of the folks on this list merely shake their heads after a while and simply disregard the bickering which is probably done by ONLY A FEW - this list is a wonderful resource managed by very patient people who, I'm sure, find this very tedious after a time. I say kudos and thank you to John and Judy and Amanda and all the team leaders - I guess they don't HAVE to provide this service, after all. We should be thrilled there IS a Craig surname list and to remember that everything, like life itself, is a work in progress subject to ups and downs, good and bad. To all of the unsubscribers, good luck in your searches and be thankful you have been able to participate in this format, whether or not you were successful. Barbara in Wisconsin

Until joining this list, I was stuck and dead-ended. I had a photograph, but no name, of my great great grandfather! That was as far as I could go. I had been given a possible name, but found through research that it was the wrong name. Then, thanks to a couple of people here, I was led to an open door that took me back to the 1700's! I just hope I can help someone along the way to "pay back" what I received! We recently talked obcessions - I guess mine is family history. It's great feeling like a part of this "family" after so many years as an orphan! I'm on three other lists, and they are QUIET!
