Joey and Marti; Think of other possibilities: 1)There were other Davids. 2)Any chance that one of them moved in the same paths as your David?? 3)He might have been counted by a slap happy census-taker. 4)Somebody who was reading census records might have filled in the cracks. 5)Some families have moved between census takers and been lost for all time. Lots of other possibles. Keep smiling anyway. Daphne - From: joey census are full of lies * * * >I remember you well, Joey. Show me sons for DAvid and Sarah in their census > information. > Marti >

When you see a message that begins something like this: ______________________________ This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Garrison Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/mEY.2ACEB/2038 Message Board Post: _______________________________ It is a message coming from the Garrison Message Board at RootsWeb. You MUST reply by using the URL listed or by Cc'ing the message board poster or they will never see your reply. Below is some additional information regarding how message boards "gatewayed" to a mailing list work. If you have any question please email me privately [email protected] Thanks, Gynon Previously published in RootsWeb Review: Vol. 6, No. 8, 19 February 2003: REPLYING TO GATEWAYED MESSAGES ON MAILING LISTS If you subscribe to a RootsWeb Mailing List that is gatewayed to a corresponding Message Board you probably have observed messages coming through on the Mailing List with the following notation: "This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list." If you wish to reply to a gatewayed message, be aware that the author of a Message Board message may not be a subscriber to the Mailing List to which his or her message has been copied. Click on the link included in the message to be taken directly to the message on the board. There you can click on POST REPLY and type in your response. That way the author of the original message will be notified of your response and will be able to view it on the board. Additionally, your reply will be gatewayed to the Mailing List and you need not post a separate response there. However, there are some instances when it may not be convenient or possible for Mailing List users to post their responses on the Message Boards as described above. For example, if you have an e-mail only service and/or limited access to the Internet, and as a result read and compose e-mail for Mailing Lists while offline, then clicking on the URL link in the message is inconvenient or impossible. To reply to a gatewayed message under such circumstances, remember to include a private response to the author of the board message. Do this by making sure that his or her e-mail address, which is included in every gatewayed post, appears in the SEND TO box of your e-mail message.
