Liz et al, I'm correcting your correction to your original :-). You wrote originally: >>>Also see a message by Pam Sears to the Dutch-Colonies list in 2003, here: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/Dutch-Colonies/2003-07/105Maria1717 Constantia 1720 Jacob 1722 Johannes 17268282364. You recently corrected that to: >>>In my message of yesterday, I had a copy-paste error, which messed up the URL to the 2003 message by Pam S that discussed part of the van Rhoon / van Roome family. That message was in response to a previous message concerning the Jacob Koning family. Pam's message can be found here, to which several other messages are linked: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/Dutch-Colonies/2003-07/10517268282364 . The correct URL should be: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/Dutch-Colonies/2003-07/1058282364 I hope this goes through accurately/correctly. Regards, Pam Sears
