Hi Adele, Hope you are having a nice weekend. Paul and I are having a quiet weekend. We will spend some time with my cousin, Mary Miceli Rosello (age 87) who lives a block away. You might be interested in some background on her. M - Maria Militello b - 1901 the oldest child of Giuseppe & Rosina Maria was the oldest child who raised all her siblings when they were orphaned in 1918. My mother was only seven at the time. She and Merita (nickname for Mary) were raised as sisters. Merita's son, Roland and I were close enough in age that we were also as close as siblings. F - Tomasino Miceli I am sending along the National Guard site hoping it might be of some use to you. MR

Hello all, I have recently received this request for help. If you are able to help Mr. Jackson, kybowhunter515@yahoo.com please contact him directly as he is not on the mailing list. Thank you list mom Deborah Byrd Deborah, Hello, I am looking for some information on my gr-grandfather, Edward Weber - who supposedly was shot in Tampa. I know the UCF has microfilm of the newspapers from Tampa from that year 1925. His death was on 9th of Nov. 1925 and I do have his death certificate - I would just like to see if there is any corresponding story in the newspaper. Do you know of anyone that could help me research that? Thank you. Daniel Jackson Shelbyville, KY

I recently received this from a non list member if anyone out there recognizes this family, please contact Amir Bey directly. amirbey@verizon.net Hello, I'm looking for a listing of a Rome DuPont, whose wife was Amanda in the 1860 census. They are listed in the 1880 and 1900 census for Monroe County, and I am trying to see if there is mention of them being married in 1860. Amanda's surname was Shackelford, or Shackleford. It's possible that they are mentioned in the slave rolls. I saw one statement that Rome was originally from Tampa, indicating that they later settled in Key West, where they definitely lived from 1880 through the early 1900s. Sincerely, Amir Bey

I am an avid Blitch researcher and am curious if you know the source of Benjamin Blitch Tatom's middle name? I have him, his wife and family in my database but no idea how to connect them to their ancestors. Since Blitch is a rather uncommon name, I'm guessing it was his mother's maiden name. Would you be able to help? Thank you, Ann Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

That would be the publication date which is usually a day or two after the death date. You might check your local library to see if they do inter-library exchanges. Our library will look up the obit and send it to them if they do that. rkmontg342@aol.com wrote: > thanks for this information.? I live in Texas.? At least I have the death date confirmed.?
