Mornin' Gene, It would really help us to set the information from this email into our respective gedcoms, if you could provide us with an Ancestry Lineage List: That is, list your ancestors going back to Antoine.... and his equivalent on the Ray side [IOW, as far back as you can go in America]. This could be just a "skeleton" :-> outline... so we can know how and where to put these folks. Because it's on the "public" [as opposed to "private"] internet, it is safest not to begin with anyone living.... so, using myself as an example, an ancestry lineage would go something like: Louise Josephine DeGruy > Albert Joseph Verloin DeGruy > Pierre Huxelle DeGruy > Pierre Domeni Verloin DeGruy > Joseph Verloin DeGruy> Antoine Jean-Baptiste Valentin DeGruy...... for one side .... and for the other side..... Frank Frederick Hotard > Antoine Noe Hotard> Simon Hotard >Pedro Simon Hotard> Mathieu Hotard [Autard, Otard] Your doing something to this would help us understand how your Rays fit in. Thanks, Renee PS A NOTE TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE DEGRUY LIST For everyone else on the list.... It would help if each of you could do something similar to the listing above which is: quick, short, easy to understand.. Why don't you just "check in" by listing your [direct] ancestry, beginning with your great grandparents, and do a similar ancestry listing? We have several new folks on the list and this would be a good "baptism for you. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Message: 1 Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2008 > From: "Eugene Ray" > Subject: [DEGRUY] BARON, admiral deBRESSE found in family tree 18c ******************* > a) JOHN RAY born in st. francis county missouri., 10/14/ 1816 married CATHERINE de BRES(SE) born 6/15/1822 > **************** > +from this union emerged 13 children including EUGENE RAY, b. 4/27/1868 >my grandfather who +MARRIED LUCIE VERLOIN deGRUY+ st. patricks church, n.o., 9/20/1893 > > >

Dear Members of the [email protected] Mailing List, A little bit of "housekeeping" from your list administrator..... Please keep an eye on the length of the messages you send to the list. When they are too large, they get "hung up" on the Rootsweb server. They bounce with the message "too big to send." This especially applies to everyone who receives their messages in a "digest" format. The digest format is designed for folks who don't want to receive a zillion messages all throughout the day, just one [or at the most two] message/s with several individual messages contained within. The digest format is the most efficient use of email space. The problem with the digests come if you "Reply" without cutting out/deleting all the messages except your response and the message you are responding to. This makes your message huge [even if your particular message may have been only 3-4 words long!] This is because some of the other messages in your digest have been too long. When you duplicate the entire digest, it makes your "replied" message enormous, and it gets "hung up." This "housekeeping" job means a little more work for you, but it makes a big difference in the way/speed/efficiency messages are received on the list. The use of space is an ongoing concern for list and website administrators. In some cases [website], it is actually "costly," in that if we use up all the space allotted us, we have to pay more $$$ to get more space. So, please, when you respond, make sure you are including only your message and the one you are responding to. And, generally, keep an eye out for the length of messages. Thanks for your help, Renee

Helen, You and your work are much appreciated. Thank you. Cheryl Seuzeneau Morris In a message dated 10/22/2008 2:31:08 A.M.
