Back in September, I visited Atlanta. I was able to visit the graves of several ancestors and relatives. In Oakland, I found my grgruncle, Rev. Preston H. MILLER who died in His son, Andrew J. MILLER, was buried in the same plot. He died in 1963. There was a space for Andrew's wife. She was Emma P. MILLER. She was born Jan 1882. I thing she is there too, but there was no death date on the stone. Does anyone on the list know anything about these MILLERs? Thank you, Susan Marshall EAlt117@aol.com

To all list members of GAFULTON-L and GAFULTON-D from Donna Parrish (email: mflp@aol.com ) Rootsweb had a server problem. That was explained in my message of 01/16/01 See the archived message. http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/GAFULTON/2001-01/0979668215 For those of you who did not quite understand, it is sort of like when you get a power loss while you are typing on your computer. You lose your current work and have to go to your backup to get it back. They got back what they could. Some of the postings never went to the list but did go to the archives. You have two choices. You can go to the archives http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/GAFULTON/2001-01 and read January postings. If you don't see your post there, please send it again or if you never saw it come through and want to send it again, please do. I think I have restored all the settings. The only thing I saw that we lost was that it didn't say GAFULTON in front of the subject line and that the replies weren't marked to go to the list. I changed these settings back. Please bookmark http://members.aol.com/mflp/ Go down to maillists. >From this page you can reach all the info on the GAFULTON list by clicking - either about, archives or search.
