HI.. Here is a genealogy search engine (http://www.genforum.com)... I went there tonight and put the DYESS surname in and got the message back that it was not a common name and would have to have at least 2 other people to request that it be added to the forum. So...I would ask that you all go and request it... This is a great place to put our names and some of the people that we are searching... I have a good friend that did that today and he has already found five cousins.... Again, the URL is: http://www.genforum.com Thanks!!!! kaite....
