Sim; I think you are in digest mode. When you are in digest mode, you don't receive emails as they are sent. Instead, email is sent to you in bulk as an attachment. In mail mode, you will get each email as it is sent. And it will not have an attachment unless the sender attached one.

Okay all of you history experts I have a question for you. I found a circa 1912 profile/interview of a cousin, William Lafayette Jerkins, in which he said that his great grandfather (and my gggg grandfather) Zachariah Jerkins (also frequently listed as Judkins) had founded the first stage coach line between Tallahassee, FL and Tuscaloosa, AL. This would have been sometime in the late 1820's to around 1837. Zachariah was in Tallahassee by 1827, and he did travel several time back and froth to Dale County, Al. Also, Tuscaloosa was the I am looking for recommendations on how to pursue evidence as to whether or not this piece of family folklore is true or not. Suggestions? Ideas? Jack Butler

When this bill was before the Florida Legislature there was more pressure from the agency keeping the records and adoptive parents than from genealogists so the bill passed the Legislature. It will be necessary for enough Genealogy Societies and individual voters in Florida to pressure their Senators and Representatives to get the law changed. It can be done, but it takes a real effort.

Dean and All, Thanks, Dean. My fears are realized! Note, everybody, that the sender doesn't even know it. Louise, check your machine, please.... Good luck! My computer guru is sending an "easier" remedy that he has found. I'll forward it as soon as I get it. To all: for the time being, attach me no attachments!
