I'm looking for 3 volunteer webmasters for Duval, St. Johns and Sarasota counties. You would need to know Frontpage, Dreamweaver, HTML or some other web editing software. Plus know how to FTP. You would be managing existing genealogy websites and also acting as the mailing list administrator. Slowly but surely I'm trying to create some free time for myself so I'll actually have time to do some genealogy research - what a concept. Please let me know if you are interested and capable of assuming these duties for either of these counties. I believe there are other counties available for 'adoption' as well.

I tried switchboard.com and came up with: Donna FLowers 2500 Snavely Ave Sw Birmingham,  AL  35211-4839 (205) 925-3997  Not sure it is who you are looking for but you might give her a call. Lynn

Dear Listers, I am trying to locate an updated e-mail address for Donna D Flowers who posted in 2003 on another list that she is descended from Nancy and John Sanders who moved from NC to Tallahassee, Leon County, FL in the early 1800s. I want to contact her in hopes of knocking down my brickwall as to the parents of my GGrandfather, John D Sanders. If anyone knows how I may reach her, please, let me know. I have Googled, Dogpiled, Yahooed, and every other source I can find with no results. In 2003 she lived, I believe, in AL. Many thanks for your time and efforts.

I am looking for an obituary for 1988 May 4 - Shirley Marie Silvis Any thoughts would be appreciated Mary Cole marycole@Prodigy.net

I am attempting to help a friend who does not own a computer, find some information on her family. She was adopted as a child, but knows some information about her biological parents. Her father was Michael Allen, born about 1950. She was told that he committed suicide on Fernandina Beach when she was 21, which would have been in 1990-1991. He was married to Carol Henderson, not once, but three times. Carol was born in WV about 1951. Supposedly they married in Jacksonville, first time about 1968-1969. My friend is not looking to find anyone, but wants background information on these folks so she can begin searching her ancestors. Any information on Michael Allen, his death or where is buried would be helpful. I searched the FL death index at Ancestry, and although there are many Michael Allen's, there does not seem to be one to match.

Cathy, don't know if this will help or not, but a search on Ancestry shows a Mary Catherine Connell, who died 12 June 1972, Hillsborough Co., Florida; she was 95 years old and was born 22 May 1977. Sorry I don't live in Jacksonville, or I would try checking on the obituaries for you. They have fantastic back file of the newspaper on microfilm, but not all years are indexed. Leonard Leonard J.

I'm wondering if there would be an Index to deaths for Jacksonville and, if so, if someone could look up the following obits for me: Earl Calvin Richards, died 1947 spouse: Elsie Isabel McKenzie Richards, died Oct. 1964 (maybe this obit would give more info on husband Earl) I. Lee Connell, died 1959 spouse: Mary Catherine McKenzie Connell, died after 1932 I'd be willing to do some lookups in Nova Scotia to reciprocate. Thanks for any help.
