Hi Sug: I can't wait for the snow to fly here in the California mountains. We are just above that huge Day Fire here in the Los Padres Nat'l Forest that started on Labor Day. It hasn't been fun wondering if we are going to have to evacuate. It looks like we are going to be okay but 4 towns in Ventura County are in danger. Ance$try does glean info from Rootsweb since MyFamily/Ance$try own the site. A lot of people have had their info taken, without permission by Ance$try. They aren't ethical and that's why I prefer our private list where we can say what we want and nobody but other list members can read the archives. I don't know how we can recruit more people but if you have any ideas, share them. There have to be tons of Garrards out there. There are tons of Maupins and both couples came to America the same year and landed in VA. I'm looking into starting a yahoo private list for my family Rootsweb lists. The plus, beside privacy, is that we can share photos in email or upload them to the list site. When I get it going y'all will receive invitations to join. yahoo isn't sluggish like smartgroups became.
