However, we got to thinking "Why don't we offer some workshops with a holiday theme this year?" For example, many countries celebrate Christmas but in very different ways, while some cultures observe different holidays. A short workshop offering global perspectives on the holiday season would be fascinating and informative. Also, many people have lost the holiday spirit and find this time of the year depressing. What can we do at VU to help restore the magic and beauty of this special time? If you would like to teach a short course or organize some other activity with a holiday flavor at the Virtual U in November and December, submit a proposal at <http://www.vu.org/create.html> or e-mail your proposal to <Programs@VU.org> If you don't feel you are qualified to teach but you have an idea for a class or other holiday event that might interest your fellow students, please e-mail suggestions to <Programs@VU.org>. =================================================================== How to Subscribe, Unsubscribe, or Change Your Address (5) =================================================================== To receive this bi-weekly calendar and other Virtual U bulletins in your Internet mailbox, visit <http://www.vu.org/subscribe.html> and click the "Subscribe" option.

Need some help solving an EATON/HEATON surname puzzle. Looking for ancestors of ISAAC HEATON married in 1760 to Hannah Bowen, daughter of Henry Bowen Sr., and wife name Moore. He lived in Jefferson Co., WV. My ggggrandfather REESE HEATON, b. 2-7-1783 moved to Jefferson, Green Co., PA in 1787 where he was married 9-4-1811 to Sarah Dell Weaver. In 1814 his family moved to Warren, Trumbull Co., Ohio and in 1836 moved to Princeton, Bureau Co., IL. Reese's brothers Dan and James remained in Trumbull Co., Ohio. Daniel HEATON changed his name as an adult to Daniel EATON while living in Trumbull Co., OH. In the book History of the Western Reserve, it states that Reese, Daniel, and James were descendants of Theophilus EATON, governor of New Haven, CT. I have lots of biographical information on Theophilus but haven't found the resources to trace his descendants. But there is a conflict of information.....A family history without quoted sources states that Reese was the ggggrandson of Nathaniel HEATON, Sr., of Boston, MA, who dies in 1664 and his wife Elizabeth EATON HEATON. The information between Nathaniel and the Isaac mentioned above is very sketchy. I'M CONFUSED...ANY HELP OR DIRECTION WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS.

I received your name rank and serial number...what have I managed to mess up this time...??? Getting on these Lists have been a mess for me, so far I have messed every one of them up...and had to resubmit. Oh well...all I can say is: It is my "No Brain Day... " Dawn

Dawn please reply to me if this message got to you. -- Lyle R. Riedinger, 700 South 9th Street Humboldt, Iowa 50548-2258 E-Mail lrr@trvnet.net URL:www.GeoCities.com/WallStreet/5933 Phone:<515>332-1439

Hi, I am forwarding this post I found on the Virginia Roots list because there are two EATON names on it. I have no further information. Diane Hettrick dhettrick@earthlink.net

Am seeking parents and any info on Horace EATON, b abt 1804 in VT. Married Amanda or Rhoda MOULTON. In 1837 went to Licking, OH, then maybe Jasper Co. IA. Also married to Betsey. Children are Laury, Frederick Augustus, and Emma. He died abt 1884. Thank-you. Julie Woolley

Diane, I am curious myself as to where the name "Baxter" came from because his grandmother, Rebecca Rutledge, is the main focus of my research. A family in Hawkins Couny, TN, that would be the closest match as being hers has the name Baxter associated with them and that's the closest I've come to explaining the use of the name. So I believe the name came from the Rutledge side of the family. Thanks, Jeff Eaton

Jeff (and any one else) In the 4th generation you have a Baxter Eaton. Do you have any idea where the Baxter name came from in your families. I have BAXTER and EATON together in Perry County, Pennsylvania, along with KINDLE, HUNTER, NEEPER, McINTIRE, and a few other names.

Classes will remain free to the public as they have always been but traditional semesters have been replaced by a monthly calendar and enrollment forms have been eliminated. "Life moves in the fast lane on the Internet and people don't want to sit around waiting for things to happen," said Paul Leighton, a spokesman for VU. "Going to a monthly schedule makes sense because new classes will always be starting and people can jump right in." Eliminating enrollment forms also makes sense, Leighton explained, because Internet e-mail has become increasingly unreliable and forms often go astray. "Now students can just drop in on classes that look interesting, and we can focus our energies on teaching rather than paperwork," he added. The web site sports a user-friendly interface permitting students to move quickly and easily from one classroom to another. New "learning channels" have also been created. Each channel has its own classroom area, library, and web-based bulletin board where students can ask questions and take part in online discussions with instructors and fellow classmates. The web site is now running on a dedicated server and the bulletin boards have been redesigned. Sara Kennedy, a member of the VU web design team, said 10-15 new learning channels will be added each month and live lectures will also be hosted. Later this fall, the campus will begin "broadcasting" classes to users' desktops, using the latest "push" technology. The Calendar of classes for August follows. New classes will be announced on the 25th of every month. Those desiring to receive future Calendars can subscribe to the Virtual U mailing list at <http://www.vu.org/subscribe.html> or e-mail <Subscribe@VU.org). ------------------------------------------------------------------ Calendar of Classes for August, 1997 ------------------------------------------------------------------ "Designing A Genealogy Web Page" (Channel 32) <http://www.vu.org/channel32/> Interest in genealogy has soared thanks to quick and easy access to a global database of information that can be accessed with any desktop computer. Scores of genealogy sites have sprung up on the World Wide Web, created by people interested in researching their family trees. This summer expert Marthe Arends will teach "Designing A Genealogy Web Page" at the Virtual U. The class begins Aug. 18 and will run 11 weeks. The goal of the class is to help participants get their genealogy and family history on the web. Weekly topics will include HTML basics, how to design a genealogy web page, and how to put one's family tree online. The class will also discuss where to find genealogy clip art, animated graphics, audio and video clips, and JavaScript; how to create guest books, query forms, and surname lists, and how to publicize a genealogy web site. A basic knowledge of HTML is recommended. Access to the World Wide Web and the ability to download files is required. Marthe Arends is a respected author and lecturer with 16 years experience in the field. She is editor and publisher of "Online Pioneers," a popular genealogy newsletter. This is Marthe's second semester at VU. Last spring, she taught "Introduction to Online Genealogy" to a packed classroom of 8,000 virtual students. ------------------------------------------------------------------ "PC Basics: Meet Your Computer!" (Channel 23) <http://www.vu.org/channel23/> You've got a computer on your desktop, a keyboard in front of you, and you've found the ON switch. Now what? "PC Basics" will take beginners on an indepth tour of their personal computer. What's a RAM chip? How does a modem work? What about those weird messages that flash on your screen? This 8-week workshop will explain what you've always wanted to know about your computer -- and more! Weekly lessons will be supplemented by informal class meetings and chat sessions with the instructor and fellow students, allowing participants to develop a practical understanding of the basics. Instructor Christy McBride has been developing and teaching inter- active courses at Virtual U for several years. She describes herself as an avid computer enthusiast who has been fascinated by computers for as long as she can remember. She holds a degree in Microcomputer Applications, and she is currently on the faculty of a community college. ------------------------------------------------------------------ "HTML & Web Design for Beginners" (Channel 21) <http://www.vu.org/channel21/> Now that most larger ISP's offer unlimited access to the Internet for $19.95 a month and many include a free web page in their basic subscription, the rush to build a home on the World Wide Web is on! But once you arrive, the task of building a web site that is interesting and visually cool may not be as easy as you expected. This 8-week class is for the person with absolutely NO experience in HTML or web design. The goal is to impart a simple working knowledge of HTML tags and the basic steps to build a home page on the World Wide Web. Students will receive weekly lessons and individual attention by e-mail as needed. The instructors will also host weekly online meetings which will give participants the chance to ask questions, obtain further instruction and swap ideas with classmates. Lead instructor Jean Engel began her journey on the World Wide Web several years ago as a student in an HTML class at the Virtual U. When she volunteered to teach HTML 101, she described herself as "just an everyday person who wants to use what I've learned to help others learn HTML and avoid having to go through months of unproductive and dissatisfying attempts as I did." Today, Jean, who holds a degree in Drama/Communications from the University of New Orleans, is an accomplished web designer and graphic artist in New Jersey. She has been on the VU faculty since 1995. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Copyright ©1997 Spectrum Learning Network.

Here's my lineage for the list. I am a grandson of Elmer Dale Eaton. My father (Phil) and I are still mixed up as to whether our Joseph Eaton (1797-?) is the same Joseph Eaton who married Priscilla Craves. Our Joseph travelled with his son, Eli, from Hawkins County, Tennessee to Stoddard County, Southeast Missouri. I am also looking for any Rutledge-Eaton marriages so that I can figure out where my g-g-grandmother Rebecca M. Rutledge came from. So far I know she came from Earth (I hope!). Thanks.

Here's my lineage for the list. I am a grandson of Elmer Dale Eaton. My father (Phil) and I are still mixed up as to whether our Joseph Eaton (1797-?) is the same Joseph Eaton who married Priscilla Craves. Our Joseph travelled with his son, Eli, from Hawkins County, Tennessee to Stoddard County, Southeast Missouri. I am also looking for any Rutledge-Eaton marriages so that I can figure out where my g-g-grandmother Rebecca M. Rutledge came from. So far I know she came from Earth (I hope!). Thanks.

I am interested in the ancestors (and the descendants) of William Eaton who was born about 1809 in Worcestershire, England, and married about 1829 Ann Powell. They migrated to Queensland, Australia, where he died 26 Jun 1878. ;-) ================================================= In real life: Richard Levingston e-mail to : rlvngstn@spirit.net.au www home page: http://www.spirit.net.au/~rlvngstn

I am searching for the parents of Mary Ann EATON b c 1803 in VT (possibly in or near Peacham, VT). Mary Ann married Calvin COLLIER on 2 Sept 1832. She died 7 Jan 1739 in Calais, VT. Has anyone run acroos my Mary Ann? Thanks, Pam Koch

I am researching my family that goes back to Orlando EATON who married Amanda LARY in Union County, Ohio on 28 Nov 1872. Their children include Leon, Chester Elby, and Omar. They lived near the intersection of those three counties. Has anyone known of any Eaton people living in that area? Family history says that Amanda Lary was an Ohio indian (native american) and that these Eaton folk came from either PA or the Shenandoah Valley of VA. Does anyone have reason to believe that these folks might be related to the many Eaton folk listed in Delaware County, Ohio (to the east)? -dave eaton in santa cruz
