A new home for the Saint Lucie county mailing list has been set up. In a few minutes, I'll send out personal invitations to the subscribers of this list who wish to join the new group will be able to do so. I can not add members directly. It should be a link you can click that will let you 'accept' the invitation to join the new group. You may need to check your spam folder as I can't say when such will be delivered. If you don't find an invitation in your email you may also go to this site - https://groups.io/g/FL-MANATEE and select Join Group. Of course, folks may still post to this list through 3/1. Tim Stowell

As of now, the Saint Lucie county mailing list has 21 subscribers. In light of this list closing on March 2nd, with the full knowledge of the list owner - Susan Penn Groover, I have set up a new home for this list. I've recently set up similar homes for other Florida Rootsweb lists that will be going defunct next month. In my next email, in a few minutes, I'll send you further information regarding this and how to join the new home for this list. Tim Stowell Chattanooga

/_*Leave a Farewell Message*_/ This post was by Judith to MODAVIES: suggestion: People may want to post a "farewell" message on the mailing list before it goes to archive, and in this message include an email you plan to keep for the foreseeable future. A separate email could be set up expressly for this purpose if it is more convenient/secure. (You'll want web-based, not provider-based.) That way, if someone peruses the archive & finds a possible connection, they would have a way to get in touch with you privately. I have been on a couple of lists that went archival at some point, and I really wish I had done that, as our old email was provider-based and - once that provider went defunct, people looking through the defunct mailing list had no way to contact me (nor I them) It's easier to track people down these days, but I'd still suggest this. I think this to be an excellent idea, wish I thought it. I would like to expand to suggest that a post to include Your name, best address to reach you (one that might be dedicated to your genealogy research), a list surname(s) of interest, a list to places of interest (country, region, state, county), subject of interest, snail mail address (at your own risk), telephone number (again at your own risk), web address if you have a website, where you “moved.” Please keep in mind these to be suggestions and you should only provide what you would be comfortable for “ibots” to find. Might not want to wait to last minute. This would give system to process information and have it posted. With this in mind, please do not be concerned when you see my post to the nearly 300 (took inventory; final count was 298 – just sharing) mailing lists I admin. I will be leaving my time capsule to the list(s) in the coming days. But I will be here til Roots Web turn off the lights and lock the door. Let me take a few lines to acknowledge all the “thank-you” I have received. I started with a few surnames and expanded to counties more recently. But you are all “welcomed.” I try serve with the volunteer spirit and a happy heart. Please overlook my frustration that may boil to the top in the coming days. Susan

/_*Ramblings from the Backseat*_/ Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. I have already announced that as of March 2^nd , when Roots Web ceases to function as a mailing list that I will be hanging up my administrator's hat. These are my observations and suggestions going forward. First and foremost, someone needs to step-up to be new administrator, chairman, leader, whatever title you like. Next a decision should be made whether to remain a mailing list or a bulletin board. Of course, what is to say both could be established. I personally have not read, but Dick Eastman has endorsed Group.io as a venue for mailing list. From what little time I have had, I would lean toward Group.io to maintain mailing list format. I have no experience with bulletin boards therefore I have no input. I am hearing Facebook, but I have issues with privacy and whether someone would make the site secure enough. I am sure there are other venues for bulletin board format. Can not stop someone setting up FB account, just do not bother to invite me. Also, Ancestry has an established bulletin board area, it is functioning. Due to the activity on most state lists, my next suggestion would be that county mailing lists consolidate to form one state list. When activity is established divide into regions. Too much activity then establish a county list (start at the top and drill down). Under the blanket of a state list posting could use subject line to keep the identity of the county ie; SUBJECT: [AL-SUMTER] Looking for … Surname lists are a horse of a different color. Suggestion here would be to make use of subject line. Kinda like reading a newspaper, the subject line is like a headline of a newspaper. Personally I pay attention to an informative subject line. A worry in the back of my mind is with the “mass exodus” from Roots Web to other venue on whether that venue can handle the new activity or whether “we” will cause that venue to crash and burn. Here's hoping that is a needless concern. Once the list is established … there needs to be centralized place where a directory or a place of registration that searching community would go to find the list. Since I am US based, USGenWeb comes to mind. This maybe more difficult step. USGenWeb sites are individually maintained. Hearing rumblings that this may be solved in the near future. Last concern (for the moment) would be “being nice and playing well with others.” Personally, have not experienced this problem. Frustration, maybe. Especially when Roots Web fell apart and returned “fixed” with continuing problems. For example, I still have to push through a post from someone using AOL. AOL users … this is why your post takes a little longer to be seen. Sorry, I do my best with the tools I have to work with. Patience is probably going to be the keyword in days to come. Patience with the leaders that will step forward. They are going to be putting a lot on their plates and will need support in establishing a new venue and getting it working, establishing their rules, etc. Congratulation to those lists that have found a “new home.” From what I see you are in good hands! Will try to make this last posting to those newly adopted lists. (Posting to all lists today.) At this point in time, Family Trees, Message Boards, Web Sites, & Wiki at Roots Web are not effected to my knowledge. Of course, Message Boards are already part of Ancestry. So open conversation. Work on finding a volunteer to lead the list forward. I'm gonna stop rambling for the moment. I'm here till they turn off the lights and lock the door. Susan

/_*Unsubscribing from Mailing List(s)*_/ With the upcoming changes to Roots Web, some have decided to “leave early.” Which I personally understand. Since I am busy, I would like to ask for your help. Should you make the decision to close your membership to list please do the following: Insert or substitute listname before dash. To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to listname-request@rootsweb.com <mailto:wvlogan-request@rootsweb.com> with the word "unsubscribe" without the quotes in the subject and the body of the email with no additional text. OR A link is provided at the bottom of individual and digests. Help in this area will be completely appreciated and will be considered an act of kindness.

/_*Genealogy of Roots Web*_/ Since most of us are genealogists or family historians, I write this to answer the primary questions I am receiving in “genealogy speak.” Mailing lists were scattered about the Internet prior to the conception of Roots Web (ie: AOL, Prodigy, Compuserve, and others) BIRTH: Sometime in 1996, Karen & Brian Leverich, conceived what it is now known as Roots Web. Roots Web grew to host uncountable mailing list of many subjects, surnames, places, etc. These mailing lists were free to its users/subscribers. MARRIAGE: June 2000. Roots Web was married (purchased by) Ancestry, Inc. with prenuptial agreement that mailing list services would remain free. I believe to be sometime in 2015, our beloved Roots Web began to suffer health issues. My speculation is outgrew its existence and its host was unable to keep up without a major and costly overhaul. After a year plus, Roots Web reopened its doors, but a lot of her faithful subscribers had lost interest or found other vehicles to convey their passages of information. During this time, other updates on the Internet have occurred. These changes have caused some subscribers unable to participate. Not qualified to expand on this other than to say that some folks have lost connection with Roots Web, DEATH: 2 March 2020. Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state. BURIAL: Archives will be available to peruse. No further information as to where, how long, or whether a price tag will be added. Hope this helps. Susan Penn Groover

Hi everyone! This has been heavy on my heart since Ancestry / Roots Web announcement. I have been admin / moderator for various mailing lists for 25+ years (some lists that predate Roots Web). The options for change do not fit my personal criteria. This is, also, not happening at a time I am able to give personal time for this change. Plus, I think Ancestry is not given an adequate “heads up” for this change. (I personally admin 200+ lists) So I have made the decision to become a subscriber as opposed to an administrator. I will remain admin to the mailing lists I currently admin till Roots Web makes the changes they propose on March 2^nd . I am leaving the decision for change to the list members. I am still gathering options. I will post suggestions in the next few days. The major option I am hearing is Facebook. I suppose this could work. But Facebook, in my humble opinion, would be turning a mailing list into a message board. And various mailing list members have stated they would not Facebook. Personally, I am in this bucket. I have personal issues with Facebook. Open discussion on the list. Voice your opinion. Enough for now. Will post more on other options in the future.

I've "rescued" an old snap shot photograph of Shirley MANN (Shirley SEEDS) and Charlie MANN with Donald KERKOW and Otto KERKOW which was taken in the early 1900's. Shirley is noted as Gaylord's Mother and Charlie is Gaylord's step-father. Otto is also mentioned as Donald's Father. The photograph is taken outdoors in a large field but I don't know what the venue is. Shirley is holding a newspaper with the headline "Mob Riots" showing in the photograph. Shirley and Charlie appear to be in their 30's and Donald about 3 years old and his Dad in his 30's as well. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding this family: Shirley SEEDS was b. 13 Jul 1885 in Cleveland, OH to parents Franklin Elmore SEEDS (1857-1923) and Elizabeth DEVINE (1863-1933). Shirley had four siblings including, Eunice SEEDS POPE (1884-1923); Hazel SEEDS HENNESSY (1886-1970); Gladies Matilda SEEDS GLEASON KERKOW (1891-1961); and Frank Alexander SEEDS (1896-1964). Shirley was married to Harry Louis GRESHAM (1884-1933) and together they had one son, Gaylord W. GRESHAM (1904-1976). Shirley's second marriage was to C. F. MANN (b. 1883). Shirley died 15 Dec 1921 in Jefferson Co., KY and is buried in the Highland Cemetery in Fort Mitchell, KY. Charles Ferguson MANN was b. 3 Nov 1881 in Covington, KY to parents John William MANN (1839-1913) and Mary M. JOHNSON (1858-1932). Charles was one of three children born to this couple including, Edna T.; Charles Ferguson; and Bessie Blaine MANN, all born between 1880 and 1884. Charles' father had three additional children by a previous marriage including, Beliz Columbus "Bela"; Squire; and Margaret "Maggie" MANN all born between 1865 and 1874. Charles was first married to Shirley SEEDS GRESHAM (1884-1921) and after her death married two additional times, one to Lorena ? (b. 1896) and the other to Martha DANIEL (b. 1895). Charles died 29 Jun 1968 in River, KY. Donald Otto KERKOW was b. 22 Feb 1916 in Covington, KY to Louis Otto KERKOW (1886-1962) and Gladys or Gladies Matilda SEEDS GLEASON (1891-1961). He was one of four children born to this couple including, Donald Otto; Robert Frank; and Delmar Seeds; and Gladies Lee KERKOW, all born between 1916 and 1929. Donald married twice, first to Catherine G. Cartwell FINRAN (1914-1982) and together they had two children, and his second marriage was to Norma Emma PENNOYER. Donald died 19 Aug 1998 in St. Lucie Co., FL and is buried in the Woodlawn Park North Cemetery and Mausoleum in Miami, FL. Donald's father was Louis Otto KERKOW b. 22 Oct 1886 in Cincinnati, OH to parents Otto L. KERKOW (b. 1842) and Fredrecia KERKOW (b. 1841). Louis Otto had one sibling, a brother Paul Emil KERKOW (1884-1966) and he died 16 May 1962. I'm hoping to locate someone from the family so that the photographs can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I've "rescued" an old photograph of John and Will LUNSMAN which was taken at the Remillard Studio in Newburgh, NY. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with the two young boys likely about 6-8 years old at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research and thanks to a SMITH Family Researcher I was able to gather the following information regarding this family: William Henry LUNSMAN was b. 18 Sept 1874 and his brother John B. LUNSMAN was b. 22 Nov 1876, both were born in Cornwall, NY to parents John Daniel or Daniel John "Dan" LUNSMAN (b. Jan 1845 in New York) and Mary "May" A. EMSLIE (b. Jun 1846 in New York, NY to parents James EMSLIE Sr. and Jane WESTON-d. 1911). The couple had a third child, Janie LUNSMAN. John married Nellie May SMITH (b. 1876 in Long Island, NY to parents Orlando Gardiner SMITH and Mary Rebecca BLYDENBURGH) in 1900 and they had a daughter, Gladys M. LUNSMAN (b. 1903 in Cornwall, NY-d. 18 Sept 2003 in Pompano Beach, FL) who later married Thomas Graham TAYLOR in 1949, though it appears that they did not have any children. William married Caroline LUNSMAN (b. 1877) and they had two children, Daniel J. (b. 28 Jul 1911-d. 27 Aug 1987 in Volusia Co. FL) and Willis Lent (b. 15 Jun 1913-d. 11 May 1979 in Fort Pierce, FL) LUNSMAN. William's son Daniel married Florence V. REARDON (b. 18 Oct 1909 - d. 15 Jul 2001) in 1936 and it appears the couple may not have had any children. William's son Willis is indicated as married after 1940 but there is no information on children in family records. Census records provide the following details: 1880 census of Cornwall, NY: James D. EMSLIE, age 60, a Baker, born Scotland, parents born Scotland Jane EMSLIE, wife, age 60, Keeping House, born England, parents born England Richard EMSLIE, son, age 22, Journeyman Baker, born NY May LUNSMAN, dau, age 32, At Home, born NY William H.

If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thank you, Shelley

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Justine BURLINGAME KINGSLEY which was taken at the E. M. Mudge Studio in Elkhart, IN. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with Justine likely in her 20's at the time it was taken. In addition to her name, someone has also written "Charlie's Sister" and "She came to our home at the same time Ralph did in 1886 and was there when we went to Cleveland in 1901." and "She is now Mrs. Warren KINGSLEY of Fort Pierce Florida". Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding Justine and her family: Justine Mabel BURLINGAME was b. 23 Mar 1876 in Plymouth or Marshall, IN to parents Hiram C. BURLINGAME (b. abt 1827 in New York) and Eliza A. DESHON (b. abt 1830 in New York). Justine married Raymund or Raymond Warren KINGSLEY (1882-1960 son of Jason H. KINGSLEY and Nancy E. SHELDON born in Salina, KS) on 25 Nov 1912 in Goshen, IN. Justine died in 1953 and is buried in the Riverview Memorial Park Cemetery in Fort Pierce, FL. I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

I've "rescued" three old photographs belonging to the TURBYFILL and AKIN Families. The first is one of Emma TURBYFILL AKIN and her son which was taken at the Streetor Studio in Shawnee, OK.

The second photograph is one of David TURBYFILL which was taken at the Swearingen Studio in Guthrie, Oklahoma Territory in the 1890's or early 1900's.

Dear Friends -   I have learned that your listmaster Cliff Fiveash passed away in 2009.  I have handled his lists for the past 3 years, after doing so periodically when serious weather was headed to his area (read:  hurricanes).  Whenever a hurricane was projected to hit Florida, one of the things on his emergency checklist was to get in touch with me and transfer the lists.  Cliff had medical problems the last few years as well which prevented him from handling the lists.    Due to time constraints I need to pass this list along to someone who can devote time to it.  I would like to see it more active but my work schedule (graveyard) does not allow me to dedicate the time needed to keep things going.  I would like to know if anyone on the list is interested in taking the reins.  You do not need previous list experience and I will always be here to help if it's needed.   If you are interesting in hosting the list, please send me an email privately to maples98512@yahoo.com and    1.  explain your desire for the list's direction, 2.  your experience in running a mailing list, and 3.  why you specifically would like to take over this one.   I am doing this for a large number of lists as Cliff had quite a few of them.  When you email me, please put the LIST NAME in the subject line so I know which one has piqued your interest.  Any messages received without the list name in the subject line will be deleted.   If no one on the list expresses interest, I will explore other avenues to have someone take the reins.   Thank you, Shirley Maples list hostess maples98512@yahoo.com

I am looking for any information concerning WILLIAM R. DUCKETT, son of JAMES DUCKETT & EMMA CONDON DUCKETT, of Clearfield, Pa., b. 10/29/14, Clearfield, Pa., d. 2/9/74, Fort Pierce, Florida. Many thanks. Loretta Myrter

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I've been offline for the past two months. I finally was able to connect with my laptop using dial-up (ugh!! LOL). Talk about going through Internet withdrawals!! As it is now, I get online after 9 p.m. Pacific Time so that is the best time to expect a reply from me. I apologize for being absent from the lists. Believe me, it was not by choice! I sincerely hope no problems arose that couldn't be worked out amicably. Please make note of my new email address: maples98512@yahoo.com Shirley Maples list hostess :)

Hello
