The graduating class consisted of 11 students : Vern Crerar <remaining names and article on graduation snipped> One problem with the name VERN is that the article on the graduation procedures notes "Vera Crerar is valedictorian of the class". Looks like a typo in the article.....so is VERN really a "VERA" or is VERA really a "VERN" ??? Meg Greenwood / Oklahoma USA ===================================

'Yellow Box" page with information about changeover : http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/form1.html Rootsweb has changed the CRERAR list to NEW servers beginning now. Everyone should have received a notice of the changeover, hopefully it will continue to go smoothly. OLD address CRERAR-L@rootsweb.com NEW address CRERAR@rootsweb.com If you use AOL - I apologize, but there may be a temporary delay in receiving Posts, its Aol’s problem, not Rootsweb’s. Make sure you check spam filters and folders, if you find any List mail there, click the THIS IS NOT SPAM button so the filters will be trained to recognize the new server. If your non-Aol eMail software has SPAM filters, you should make sure they allow mail from the list in this format: CRERAR@rootsweb.com . Consider allowing the entire domain of rootsweb.com addresses which would help when you join any new Lists. Subscribers in the digest mode CRERAR-D@rootsweb.com will need to send their email to the NEW address of CRERAR@rootsweb.com . Digest numbers may be out of sequence during the changeover. Both email addresses [with the -L and without it] will still work for SENDING posts to the List but not everyone will receive it correctly depending on your server, there will always be someone who won’t be able to make the changeover, don’t know why. As this list is small and we don’t receive daily mail, nor sometimes even weekly, to make sure you are indeed getting Posts, "browse" the Archives and see if any Posts have come through lately. Write to me if you have problems with Posts or questions in general. I have access to Rootsweb Listowner Help to find out what is happening.

I'm including the URL for a test Search facility through Rootsweb that searches ALL the Archived Messages, literally millions of them for your searchwords. Most of the CRERAR messages have been Posted through our List, but many are from others. It will take a long afternoon to search all the 614 CRERAR hits from this Test search engine. Results seem to be arranged by date, so the first ones you read will be the oldest. Less likely to still find someone at a linked address, but worth a try.
