    1. Anna Etta DuBois obit
    2. ELIZABETH RUSSO
    3. From the SC Advocate, July 21, 1904: DUBOIS—Miss Anna Etta DuBois was born in Marion, SC, April 10, 1877 and died in the triumph of faith May 12, 1904. She was the daughter of J.T. and Mrs. Eugenia DuBois and was one of a large family of children. Joining the church in tender childhood, she was several years ago very clearly and happily converted. Diffident and reserved by nature, when she referred to her experience at all, it was always in the spirit of Him who "is meek and lowly in heart." Yet, she had that faith, which in life, "worked by love and purified the heart," in sickness patiently and submissively enduring as seeing Him who is invisible and in the presence of death was not afraid. Miss Etta was a most dutiful and affectionate daughter. The cheerfulness with which she discharged her share of the household duties was equaled only by her energy, and her solicitude for the comfort of her father and mother, in the midst of affliction, was beautiful to behold, during the months of sickness, that preceded her translation, she exhibited patience and fortitude that constituted a remarkable triumph of the grace of God. Even after her strength was far expended, she often went to church, because of the joy of being in God's house, and after she was too weak to read, she often had her mother to sit by her side and read the "glad tidings." Miss Etta will be pleasantly remembered by many occupants of this parsonage–her home being so near by–and to the entire family many hearts go out in this time of sore bereavement." R.E. Stackhouse

    1. Jame Thomas DuBois obit
    2. ELIZABETH RUSSO
    3. From the South Carolina Advocate3/30/1905 DuBOIS----James Thomas DuBois was born in Georgetown county, December 19th, 1830, and died in Marion, SC, October 3d, 1904. November 11, 1856, he was married to Miss Eugenia Potter, of Georgetown, and soon after that date made Marion his home. Brother DuBois was one of the best known and most useful citizens of the community. His unsullied integrity of character commanded the respect and in inspired the confidence of all who knew him. His ideals of duty were high and worthy, and every problem that faced him he sought to solve by the application of fixed and righteous principles, and not by the suggestions of expediency. When in early manhood he gave himself to God, it was an irrevocable and whole-hearted commitment of himself to the doing and suffering of God's will. During the latter years of his life he was rendered almost helpless by disease. His sufferings were at times acute, but his faith triumphed over all trials. A braver, sweeter, gentler, more patient, more cheerful spirit than he maintained in the shadow one seldom sees even in the sunshine. As long as he was able to be out, the town had no more public-spirited citizen, and the church no more faithful servant. He was long a member of our Quarterly Conference, and served in various capacities. His home life was a very happy one. His devotion to wife and children was unusually tender, and when suffering made further ministry to them impossible, nothing could have been more beautiful than their ministry to him. Death came to him very suddenly, but for years preparation had been complete. His wife and children have every consolation that God's goodness and their loved one's faithfulness can bring to them.

    1. Henry W. DuBois obit
    2. ELIZABETH RUSSO
    3. DUBOIS—Henry W. DuBois was born in upper Colleton county sixty-years ago; was educated at Kings Mountain military academy at Yorkville, was married in early life to Miss Katherine Rice, of Barnwell, pursued the life of a farmer for many years, later moved to Walterboro and was elected auditor of Colleton County, which position he capably filled until his death in October, 1911. Left to mourn his death is a devoted wife, and large family of sons and daughters. Brother DuBois will be remembered by his acquaintances, not because of his material successes so much as because of his spiritual achievements. He began his religious career at an early age and worked at it continuously, and earnestly, and by the grace ofGod succeeded at it, laying up for himself treasures in heaven. He was a staunch Methodist, attending upon its ordinances and supporting its institutions faithfully. But he was more than this—he was a devout Christian, living blamelessly, and leaving to his good wife and children a priceless heritage–a Christlike life. His taking away leaves a decided vacancy, not only in his home, but in the Church in Walterboro. He was a good steward. For years he served the Sunday school as its secretary and treasurer. His record of fidelity to his church and Sunday school will be an inspiration for years to come. H.J. Cauthen

    1. Catherine Rice DuBois obit
    2. ELIZABETH RUSSO
    3. SC Christian Advocate, 10/14/1920 Mrs. Catherine Thomson DuBois (nee Rice) (August 7, 1853 - May 11, 1920) She was a daughter of Hon. David H. Rice, of the Spring Town section of Bamberg County, once a part of old-time Barnwell District, and who was of the distinguished Rice family, who, with its deep toned piety and good works, has made of Methodist and Baptist history lustrous, not only in lower south Carolina, but throughout the State, and with their affinity and consanguinity, are still in the forefront of Bible Christianity and holy warfare. Miss Kate, as she was lovingly and familiarly called, was one of the most amiable young ladies and was the pride of her many friends. In 1876 she became the bride of H.W. DuBois, the ideal and only son of Hon. Jesse DuBois, of Colleton County, South Carolina, and who was a model Christian gentleman of the highest tone and old Carolina type. By this union there are twelve noble children, three of whom are in heaven. Seven are happily married and two still sigle. Sallie, the oldest daughter, is the noble wife of Mr. H.M. Williams, of Yemassee, SC and who is a son of Rev. RS Williams, of blessed memory, and who was a brother of the lamented Rev. John G. Williams, D.D., eminent preacher, author and distinguished original thinker. Her ("Sister Kate's") husband was the popular and efficient auditor of Colleton County, and after his death, in 1909, she removed to Savannah, Ga., and lived with her devoted children. The separation seemed long, but O, how sweet is the "blessed hope" that they are Together now around the throne, Across the deep, cold river, In sweeter joys than earth has known They praise the blessed Saviour.

    1. Selena Rice DuBois obit
    2. ELIZABETH RUSSO
    3. From the South Carolina Christian Advocate, 5/18/1899 DuBOIS–Mrs. Selena DuBois, daughter of Col. H.W. and Mrs. Maria Rice, was born in Colleton, SC, October 1st, 1822, and died in Savannah, Ga., at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Davis, February 6th, 1899. In early life she was happily married to Hon. Jesse DuBois, who preceded her several years to the spirit land. They reared a large and interesting family, five of whom survive. At the age of 13 she united herself with the Methodist church, and remained a consistent member of the same till her death. One of her strongest characteristics was her loyalty to her church. She was a good woman—affectionate wife and mother, a kind friend and neighbor. Her illness was short, and though she was unconscious, and not able to leave testimony, yet we sorrow not as those who have no hope. We have known her many years and loved and respected her. Her remains were brought and interred in the family burial ground beside her husband to await the resurrection morn. An Old Friend

    1. FAQ: Problems with web pages.
    2. Steven Coker
    3. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION: The computer tells me I do not have the software needed to read some of the Forum web pages. What do I do? ANSWER: The problem is probably not with the pages or links. It is probably caused because you have old software (e.g. web browser) installed that needs to be upgraded or replaced. If you are using AOL, CompuServe, Prodigy, WebTV, or some other service that provides a software package integrated with the service, then you need to look for a solution in the online help materials or technical support provided by your service provider. If you are using Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer, make sure you have the latest version installed. Whatever software you are using, check to see if there is an upgrade or newer version available that might solve your problems. A few additional recommendations are: 1. For computer savvy people, and others who can figure out how to install and upgrade computer programs, I recommend they not use AOL, Prodigy, or similar services that require customers to use their proprietary software packages. My opinion is that limiting the customer to use of a proprietary software package does not give them the best and broadest range of compatibility for using the Internet. For this category of people, I recommend obtaining Internet access from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) that allows the user to select from a variety of available browsers (e.g. Netscape Navigator, MS Internet Explorer) and email programs (e.g. Netscape Messenger, Eudora Pro). 2. For people who can't or won't handle installation and maintenance of computer software, I recommend using a service like AOL, WebTV, Prodigy, Compuserve, etc. Those types of services generally include a proprietary software package with the service. They might not allow the customer to select and use other software programs with their service. But, they generally provide support for their packaged software and make periodic upgrades easily available. The major advantage, in my opinion, of these types of integrated services is that they are usually easier to install, use, and maintain. The major disadvantage, in my opinion, is that they usually restrict the customers ability to select and use other, sometimes better, software options. 3. Regardless which of the above options a person chooses, I recommend seeking out and obtaining the fastest Internet access you can afford. The following is a list of service options you may want to investigate and consider. http://www.tci.net/ http://rogers.home.com/ http://shaw.home.com/ http://www.cox.com/CoxatHome/ http://www.comcastonline.com/ http://www.comcast.com/content/home.htm http://www.bellsouth.net/member/addservices/ADSL/index.html http://www.bellsouthonline.com/isdn/ http://www.bellsouth.com/bbs/adsl/ http://www.isps.com/ http://www.ispfinder.com/ http://boardwatch.internet.com/isp/ http://www.netguide.com/Internet/Access http://www.scroots.org/faq4.html http://home.netscape.com/download/index.html Hope that helps answer some of the questions.

    1. Privacy and Genealogy
    2. Steven Coker
    3. OXYMORON: PRIVACY AND THE INTERNET by Myra Vanderpool Gormley, CG <RWR-editors@rootsweb.com> Previously published in RootsWeb Review, Vol. 2, No. 12, 24 March 1999. Reprinted with permission. * * * * * Genealogists use RootsWeb and the incredible power of the Internet to learn more about ancestors and to find far-flung cousins. However we are caught in an incongruous position on privacy matters. Everyone wants their privacy respected, but are you invading that of your relatives? Technology enables us to share genealogical information easily and quickly via e-mail, mailing lists, chat rooms, bulletin boards, newsgroups, GEDCOMs, CDs and Web sites. In our eagerness to obtain and to share data we forget that our living family members have a right to privacy. We also post personal details about ourselves that we would not put on the local supermarket bulletin board. Aunt Martha might reveal her real birth date and confess that she had a child out of wedlock when she was 19. Sweet old Uncle Jim may tell you that he has been married and divorced six times. However, you are invading their privacy if you publish this information or if you share it with others via a GEDCOM or family group sheets. Information on home pages, bulletin boards, and mailing lists is electronic publication. It is OK to collect and compile information about your living relatives, but don't share it (unless you have their permission, of course) with others -- in any format via any means. During the preparation of a talk for my local genealogical society on this subject, I searched hundreds of genealogy-related home pages. At one I found the names and details about everyone in the family, including when and where they were all born, right down to a one-month-old grandson, listing the hospital in which he was born. One researcher reports, "In just one file that I downloaded . . . I found more than 200 names of persons born within the last 70 years . . ." Another notes, "I was shocked and dismayed to find that someone had copied my entire GEDCOM and put it up on their Web site. While I have no objection to anyone using my dead ancestors, this person had included the living as well . . ." Now, I've heard from several genealogists who claim it does not matter what we put up on our home pages or share on the Internet since "this information is all public information, anyway." Another one argues that "unless and until they quit putting births, deaths and marriages in the newspapers the basic relationships and names are and will remain public info." I have no quarrel about marriage and death records -- if they are really obtained from public sources. However, I asked several correspondents to provide me with the source of the birth information posted on their home pages, and guess what I learned? In every instance the data were either supplied by a cousin or obtained from a GEDCOM that someone had sent them. In other words, they had not found the information in a public source at all. Take a look at the policy posted at "Don't Mess with the Living, Texas" <http://home.sprynet.com/~harrisfarm/warning.htm>: "It is the policy of the Texas GenWeb Project to protect the rights and privacy of our living relatives. We strongly encourage all involved to do their best not to place information on the Internet about anyone who is still living, unless you have their express permission to do so." Among the suggestions for ways to protect living family members are: -- When requesting information (via e-mail, chat, queries, etc.) do not include personal information on living persons. -- When responding to requests for information, especially to someone you really do not know, do not provide them with personal information about living persons. They could post it on the Web or do who knows what else with it. -- Before sharing GEDCOM files with others, expunge information on all living persons. Programs such as GEDClean, GEDLiving, and GEDPrivy will do this for you. -- If you have a genealogy Web site, remove information about all living persons. (Check Cyndi's Genealogy Home Page Construction Kit <http://www.cyndislist.com/construc.htm> for tips and links to the several GEDCOM utility programs that will exclude such data.) British genealogists are using the "GEN100" logo to signify that their Web site respects a cut-off date of 100 years, and to advise that information which is less than 100 years old will not be divulged. Many Americans use January 1920 as the cut-off point, since that is the most recent federal census available to the public. We should exercise good manners and respect the privacy of our families -- those generous relatives who have shared information with us or who shared with a cousin of a cousin. Additionally, there is another and growing problem -- identity theft. Why make it easy for cyberthieves to steal your or a loved one's identity? When you post public messages about your research, it is sufficient to say you are researching a Cynthia Jones line. You don't have reveal relationship by saying she is your mother or maternal grandmother. To learn more about identity theft and other privacy issues visit: <http://www.identitytheft.org/> and <http://www.privacyrights.org/>. In the pursuit of our ancestors, let's not hurt ourselves or our living family members. Think before you post or share data. * * * * * Written by Myra Vanderpool Gormley, CG <RWR-editors@rootsweb.com> Previously published by RootsWeb Genealogical Data Cooperative, RootsWeb Review, Vol. 2, No. 12, 24 March 1999.

    1. Network Etiquette (Netiquette)
    2. Steven J. Coker
    3. NETWORK ETIQUETTE (NETIQUETTE) As the name implies, netiquette is the electronic version of good manners. Or, how to conduct yourself on the Internet. Computer manners are important. There are millions of people connected to the Internet and the number continues to grow. The actions of one person can affect many others. As with most manners, the underlying principle is the Golden Rule. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. When applying the rule, put yourself on the same level as the other person. For example, although you might have a very fast connection to the network and you may have a powerful computer system, think of how your actions affect others who are using average to slow speed connections and older, less capable systems. However, this doesn't mean that we must always accommodate the least capable person connected to the net. We should aim for the majority of users. RESPECT. The advice is simple, treat people the same way as you would treat them in person. Follow the same standards of politeness as you do in every other aspect of life. Respect people's feelings and their right to privacy. Think carefully before forwarding an e-mail message. They may not want their words or their contact information (name, email address, etc.) distributed further without their knowledge. In general, don't send personal information about living persons without their permission. IMPRESSION. On a computer network you are often judged by the quality of your written communications. So take care about how you present yourself. For example, your e-mail messages should be typed properly with capitals and spacing in the right places. Grammar and spelling should be checked before sending. Messages you send to mailing lists are distributed to the general public. They are also archived and made available for future researchers. So, your messages may be read years from now by one of your relatives or perhaps by your future descendants. Think about that before you select the send command. LURK. Before you join in a discussion, read some of the existing messages to get a feel for the material being discussed. Try searching the message archives to get a feel for what has already been discussed on the topics you are considering writing about. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) are a good source of background information on the nature of the discussion group. FAQs save you having to ask a lot of basic questions that others have heard too often already. DO'S AND DON'TS. * Do choose your words carefully. Mailing lists are public mediums. You have no control over where your words go after you send your message and you can't edit them after they are sent. * Don't write anything that you wouldn't say to a stranger face-to-face. * Do re-read your message carefully before you send it. * Don't write e-mail messages in a hurry (or a temper). * Do quote from the original message when replying. * Don't quote excessively. Some e-mail programs automatically quote the whole message when you use the reply facility. This is wasteful and can also be confusing. Quote the relevant portions only. Delete extraneous material. * Don't write anything that isn't suitable for all ages, sexes, religions, races, etc. Remember, this is a public forum. * Don't overuse the 'cc' function. Many people send copies to multiple mailing lists when the message has only marginal application to most of the lists. Try to focus and send the message only to the lists for which it is directly relevant. * Don't send "thank you" messages to an entire mailing list when you are only thanking a few people. * Don't let brevity triumph over clarity. There's no point in being brief if your message is not understood by the people you want to communicate with. * Don't try to impose your personal philosophy about how the world, or the mailing list, should work on others. There is room for a diversity of attitudes and philosophies. Try to be tolerant. If you must complain, do it nicely. WRITE EFFECTIVELY. Good e-mail is like good writing in other mediums. Guidelines for composing effective e-mail messages include: - limit it to one subject per message; - give a descriptive subject heading; - when the subject changes, change the subject line; - be concise, write short sentences; - use bulleted lists to break up complicated text; - quote selectively from the original e-mail when replying; Quoting from the original message means including an excerpt from it in your reply. The quotation should be marked or set-off in some way to clearly distinguish the quote from your text. This is often done automatically in email using angle brackets (>). But, you can manually select, cut, and paste the words you want to quote and use the old-fashioned technique of actually enclosing the words in quotation marks. Some email programs automatically quote the whole message when you use the reply facility. This is wasteful and can be confusing. Quote the relevant portions only. Delete extraneous material. Also, take care not to quote private or sensitive information. Messages can be made more concise using three letter acronyms (TLAs) to abbreviate common expressions. Some common ones are 'FYI' (for your information), 'BTW' (by-the-way), 'IMO' (in my opinion), 'WRT' (with respect to), 'NRN' (no reply necessary) and 'TIA' (thanks in advance). Person-to-person communication provides visual and aural clues to your meaning through facial expressions, body language, or voice inflections. We have limited ways to imitate these techniques using 'emoticons' or 'intensifiers' in email messages. Emoticons (also known as 'smileys') are faces viewed sideways that can be used within your messages to help convey feelings. The main ones are ':-)' to represent a smile, ':-(' to represent unhappiness and ';-)' to represent a wink. Intensifiers provide emphasis. These include **enclosing your words within asterisks** or USING UPPERCASE. Use uppercase with care - it's considered shouting on the 'net. Don't overdo these techniques. Too much quoting is wasteful, confusing, and makes it less likely that your message will be read. Too many smileys can be irritating. Too much emphasis using intensifiers gives the impression of hostility. Like most things in life, moderation is best and excess is poor form. ORGANIZE. Most email programs provide a filing system for storing messages. Use it. Create separate folders for regular correspondence, projects, or forums that you receive mail from regularly. Keep your inbox tidy so that it only contains messages needing action. Create filters in your email program to automatically route messages from mailing lists into dedicated folders. This technique is useful for any category of mail you receive regularly. Delete messages after they are no longer needed. Purge sent messages periodically. Check for new email at least once per day and go through all your folders at least once per week. Read and write email offline. You don't need to be connected to read or write email. You only need to be connected to send and receive email. Use an email program that allows automated retrieval of messages. For example, AOL allows users to create "flash sessions" which can automatically connect, download new email, then disconnect. Almost all email programs and service providers allow similar automated sessions capabilities. If you don't download your email often enough from your service provider's system, you may develop a clog of messages. If a clog develops, then your incoming email may be rejected. DATE & TIME. Your email program will use the date and time on your PC's clock to stamp your messages. So make sure your computer's date and time are correct. THE LAW. There are laws relating to copyright, data protection, computer misuse, libel, etc. Use good judgment and obey such laws. With regard to copyright, although many resources are free, some aren't and shouldn't be copied without prior permission of the copyright owner. The "Free Use" doctrine allows certain limited uses. If you have questions on such subjects, look at some of the numerous web sites which offer guidance and opinions about them. Or, use this simple rule. When in doubt, don't. SIGNATURES. Make sure that you include your email address in the body of your message so that people can communicate with you. While this is normally provided automatically in your message header, is helps to include a short "signature" at the end of the message. A signature is a small piece of text which provides contact information and sometimes a favorite saying. Signatures should be short, usually between 2 to 5 lines, and limited to text only.

    1. TIPS ON CITING INTERNET SOURCES
    2. Steven J. Coker
    3. A WORD FROM THE SPONSOR: TIPS ON CITING INTERNET SOURCES by Brian Mavrogeorge, The Learning Company <Brian_Mavrogeorge@broder.com> Source citation basics include identifying who wrote the information, the form in which the information appeared, and who the publisher and/or repository of the information were. Provide enough detail to permit some evaluation of the source and to enable yourself and others to find the exact source you used. In EVIDENCE! CITATION & ANALYSIS FOR THE FAMILY HISTORIAN, Elizabeth Shown Mills, CG, CGL, FASG, FNGS, applies these basics to the Internet. To make it easy to follow her guidelines, Ultimate Family Tree (UFT) <http://www.uftree.com/> contains source templates authorized by Mills. UFT users can document sources easily by selecting a fill-in-the-blanks template and answering these questions: 1. Who wrote the information? This is the author, the compiler, Webmaster or creator of the Web page. Because electronic mail addresses such as JohnSmith@fastsurf.com and URLs (universal resource locators) -- addresses of Web sites -- change frequently, Mills recommends that you also provide a postal address of the originator. 2. What is its form? This might be "e-mail to author," "family file," or "Stanton Family Association Web site." 3. Who published the information or in what repository is it located? This should identify the e-mail user, the Webmaster's name, or the name of the organization. It also could be the page's URL. 4. When was it received? Because of the issue of permanence (or lack thereof) of information found on the Internet, indicate the date the information was downloaded or received. To facilitate evaluating the reliability of the source, cite not only the Internet source, but also the source on which it is based. Has the Webmaster done a partial or full extraction from the original record? Are these simply random bits and pieces of information from unidentified original or secondary sources? This is important because most of the information on the Internet originated in some other medium and is simply being published on the Internet by someone other than the original creator. * * * * * Previously published by RootsWeb Genealogical Data Cooperative, RootsWeb Review, Vol. 2, No. 8, 24 February 1999.
