A couple of years ago, I found my entire Brouwer line back to 1624 New Amsterdam while reading a post that had absolutely nothing to do with the Brouwer name. Talk about snippets of information! There was a lesson learned that long ago day, and I learned it well. Although speaking in Lee's defense, I think he was talking only about subject lines in message board posts and not about our list in general.

Well said, Fargo. Hey, I look at every little piece of info I can find on CT Middle. Sometimes I find a little speck of info that guides me in the right direction and it's not even under any of my surnames!! My ancestors were in the area for over 100 years.
