Hi, If everything worked right, I just changed the settings for the list so that replies will go to the list. This means that if you want your reply to be private, you'll need to replace the list address with the name of the person to whom you are replying. I thought we'd try this for a while to see if it would generate more discussion on the list. In the meantime, who's looking for who? I suggest sort of a modified roll call. Please place your surnames in the subject line so they can be found easily in the archives and include full names, locations and dates so it will be easier for others to make a match. Most of all, have fun and good luck in finding new cousins!.. Jane
