Actually here are a few helpful tidbits -- since we have neighboring counties perhaps you want to review what I was working on the past little bit this pm for the Fulton site, and if there are any common names and I do believe the Bagwell one certainly is, please feel free to pull that information and include it on your GaGenWeb pages. Same for anyone else that these names apply to. (Actually I believe this first article could go on the Putnam site as it speaks of Brer), but this is also a really good example of what we have discussed here previously that newspaper articles are great information pieces for genealogy, although this one is not as old as many I am transcribing, it certainly has its merit for laughter. I have many more that I have already done, and many more to go, if anyone is interested I'll be happy to share them as well. Cheers, Monday August 28, 1944 Brewer, Ernest � �The business of farming even on a modest scale is no bed of roses. Exhibit �A� for this contention and chief bidder for a milder mode of life was Ernest Brewer, Mayor Hartsfield�s southpaw executive secretary. Brewer was bandaged and wounded. Several months ago, Brewer rescued a dog from a briar patch on a lot adjacent to his home, 1404 Stewart Avenue S. W. He was struck by the lush growth, and decided to acquire it. Last Thursday he decided to clean it off, without the benefit of other labor. He sweated and toiled, but the persistent briars held. Instead of having a rose bed to work in, he had a briar patch, and the recalcitrant briars fought back. Brewer is nursing his wounds which became so painful that he had to seek medical aid. It�s cheaper to pay wartime costs of labor than to turn a tenderfoot loose in a briar patch�, Brewer opined. �I�m not much of a B�rer Rabbit.� Uncle Remus did not mean me, and I don�t want to be thrown into any new briar patches. Why I�m the most �stuck-up� man in town now, and I�m through with farming. Monday August 28, 1944 BURNETTE, Harold Jackson (BUD) age 12 died August 27, 1944.

Also if my memory serves me correctly many people put the statement on their page sin re to linking when Family Discovery was selling subscriptions to view our data, in fact that is what the Attorney General had stated to do so that there was no doubt it was a violation for them to "sell" that information. That is not comparative in this instance as no one is selling anything. ----- Original Message ----- From: <MFLP@aol.com> To: <GAGEN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, March 16, 2003 4:49 PM Subject: [GAGEN] Another Timesaving Tip Brenda Pierce has found another way to save space on our main pages. >From the guidelines: "The inclusion of the State Coordinator and Asst.
