Maxine, all The database at http://www.cobnet.com/webBase/crawford/search.pl already has thousands of entries. I would suggest that everybody who hasn't done so already, enter your Crawford information into the Crawford Webbase. We can refine it from there. Granted, the Webbase isn't a real relational database, but a good place to start. I like Maxine's idea that such a true database, we could key on multiple keywords and match birthplace, D.O.B., parents names, etc, etc,. -Marc McCune http://www.geocities.com/Athens/4660/roots.htm Maxine Hornaday <hornaday@sat-co.net> suggested: > Just a thought??
