Hi Amber, My Granduncle is Robert VETZEL from the Tampa area. He's still living (and 85 years of good humor have made him much fun to be around). I don't have much on his family but could ask him if you'll send some names and basic info. He's been a great help with details and stories from my Grandaunt's side of the family. Uncle Robert married my Grandfather's sister, Radna TOWNSEND (1915-1995), daughter of Lewis R. TOWNSEND (1889-1953) and Georgia E. "Genie" SIMMONS (1894-1967). Best wishes, Jennifer Jacksonville, FL jennifer@leading.net Proud RootsWeb Sponsor+ >Hi All, >I'm new to the list, and researching my Florida kin.

The Florida State Genealogical Soc. has received a letter from Arlene Timmerberg, 805 Washington St., Hermann MO 65401 who is searching for descendants and family members of William Warner who died in 1962(don't know if FL or MO). At that time there was a Leo Warner in Cane (? can't find on map) Springs, and a Mrs. Lee (Eunice) Warner in Orange Park. Using the various on-line telephone book searches I can't find any complete matches, but did send her close ones. If these names are familiar, will you please contact her? Leslie

If anyone knows of anyone who can help me locate any living descendants of my great-aunt Lenore M (Shannon) Bertelsen, I would appreciate anything sent to me. I am running out of ideas and I'd take any help anyone would like to send my way. Lenore was married to Andrew Bertelsen. They moved from Michigan and he passed away in the Zephyrhills (Hillsborough County, FL) area in 1963. Lenore passed away in December 1982 in the Clearwater (Pinellas County, FL) area. I don't know for sure that they had any children, but I'd like to complete my family tree with their names on part of it. Thanks, Kevin O'Brien Laguna Hills, CA Descendant of Wilfred Granville and Caroline Musette Shannon

According to my medical dictionary... Status Lymphaticus: A hyperplastic condition of all lymphatic tissue, the spleen, bone marrow & thymus. The thymus enlarges together with lymph glands and lymphoid tissue elsewhere in the body. People with this condition have a delicate framework, slight musculature, delicate cardiovascular system, low blood pressure, low blood sugar and lymphocytosis. They are particularly susceptible to shock and infection. E-mail me privately if you have any questions that I may be able to answer.
