    3. Amen Terry! This is a day late but I feel we should all take pride in our country and our ancestors and family members who fought so bravely to make our country what it is today. A place that is envied by most of the world and what many people call the "TRUE LAND OF MILK AND HONEY" that is a refuge to all who wish to enter. My ggg grandfather John Gillean and six of his sons, all from Walker County, fought in the civil war and two didn't come home. most all of his descendants have served their country in one military or the other and all are very proud of it. My father served in both Navy and Army. Two brothers retired from the Airforce and Navy and one brother-in -law. My son will retire in two years from the Navy. If we would try to instill more pride of our country in our children they wouldn't be so willing to destroy it along with their peers. We should honor our Veterans every day but this one day truly sets an example for those who follow behind us. God Bless America and God Bless Our Faithful Ancestors! Carolyn

    3. To All, I mean not to any ones feelings but I have to speak to this, Memorial Day and what it means to me. I have served 21 and 1/2 years in the United States Army, I was drafted and also served in Vietnam during the Tet Offensive 1968. My son served in Desert Storm, I have very many relatives that has served within the United States and some have lost there lives other was gassed badly during World War II and lived a trouble live till his death. I have Quakers that help both sides of the Civil War because they didn't believe in the shootings that took place. I am sure that allot around the world does Honor the fallen Soldiers as we do. I know that they do in South Korea, Germany, Japan, and others. To me when I was overseas to do my duty for my country the greatest feeling there is, to see the United States Flag flying in the distance you knew that you was close to a part of our present in that country. I really don't care why we was there for what ever reason but as a soldier I did what they ask of me. Now as we HONOR our dead on Monday. Many of those that we Honor tomorrow carried a U.S. Flag on there casket to the burial site. Just before they are place to there resting place. The flag is removed and properly folded and given to the next of kin. Taps is played and they lowered to there resting placed. Regardless, of who started what or who finished what was started. We all HONOR our fallen soldiers regardless of what country we come from, maybe a different date. Even our President when in a foreign country will honor there fallen Soldier of the Unknown Tomb. Same the President does her. But for me to watch how I put something down because I might offend some one that could be living here because we are a melting pot. And they now live here I don't understand they are living in a Country that I and my relatives stood up when our country called and was counted. So they now can enjoy what we have. They should understand what has happen to our history in the different actions that our people has been in. I have nothing to hide from I think that we should of stay out of some of the places we went to. But none should ever forget what that soldier pay for us to enjoy our system here in the United States. And now others who make up the melting pot also enjoys. I am ever so grateful to the solders that we HONOR on Memorial Day and the ones that are still alive. Thanks to all for there part done in defending what our Government call upon them to do.

    1. [GAWALKER] Sunday Afternoon Rocking Series
    2. BONNIE WHITE
    3. I do not know if any of you are familiar with this weekly newsletter which is written by Jan Philpot. I have subscribed for a while now to her free publication. She is an ardent family researcher and a gifted writer. Hope no one minds my sharing this with you. - Bonnie White ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sunday Afternoon Rocking The Readers' Legacy (from the "Sunday Afternoon Rocking" series) "Copper-Toed Boots!", she exclaimed, "See if they have that one! And Little Women! And The Boxcar Children.that one too!" Later her answer was, "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.see if they have that!" The titles had come in response to my own asking, "What should I check out this week? What did you read when you were my age?" And so it was, that in my season, I too enjoyed Copper-Toed Boots, The Boxcar Children, Little Women, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, and any other myriad number of titles remembered by my mother. Later my mother would tell me how her own mother had read Zane Gray novels late into the night aloud to my grandfather.and I would have to read all of those as well. I cannot remember a time when books were not a part of our lives. Not that we were any well read family, or knowledgeable of the great classics, but simply that we read. A lot. Television was not a center of entertainment in our home, primarily because I was quite a big girl when we could first afford one. Even then it was viewed by some sense of mistrust by my parents, who thought it might be a "time waster" if allowed to be on very often. Books, on the other hand, could be excused from creating diversion, for the simple reason that my parents had known what it was to hunger for them. There were not great numbers of books in our home, for we could ill afford them. The titles were not of lofty academic stature, for none of my family was particularly academically inclined. But books there were, and very early I was introduced to the public library where hours of enjoyment could be had for no price at all. Well I remember my first "real book" of my very own. I had many "Little Golden" books, mostly arriving in my hands one or two at a time at Christmas or a birthday, but a "real book", a hard covered one, a chapter book.no. By third grade, someone had introduced me to the Nancy Drew mysteries, and voraciously I consumed all I could locate. Having exhausted the meager supply at the public library, having exhausted the supply of all my more fortunate friends, and living in an age with no school library available, I felt a little like Abraham Lincoln.hungry for a book, willing to walk miles to get one, but no more of that genre in sight. I waylaid my hunger, and branched out into whatever the library had available on my level that I had not yet read. It was a good thing I was that "hungry", for I discovered much I might not have had my hunger been too easily satiated. Several times a year we would make a trek to relatives in Tennessee, where doting aunts waited anxiously to gauge the growth in size and character of one of their only two nieces. And typically, one of the aunts had already planned a shopping excursion. Such shopping excursions were not extravagant by the standards many of today's children gauge, but in that time and place they were quite a novelty and adventure for me. "And what would you like to have this time?", she asked, eyes twinkling. She enjoyed giving as much as anyone I ever knew. I scarcely dared to breathe as I answered her. "A book," I said, "A REAL book, with hard covers and chapters and everything! A Nancy Drew book, please?" Sagely, she agreed that was a wise choice, but she refused to visit the bookstore until the very last day of my visit, that I might not "have my nose in a book" the entire time I was to be visiting. I will never forget the joy and drama of the occasion of being the proud owner of a book, a new book, a book with chapters, a book with a hard cover. And with wonder, I literally DID bury my nose in that book all the way home.sniffing the fresh new smell with delight, running my hands again and again over that cover and thinking, "This is mine! This book really belongs to me!" It was The Mystery of the Whispering Statue.and yes, I still have it. Later my children would ask, "What should I check out this week? What did you read when you were my age?" And the story continued.I hope it never has an end. Books became a large part of my life. Somewhere along the line, I even evolved out of "junk" and made my reading diet a more balanced one, sprinkled with a goodly number of nonfiction and classics. I have worked in a public library, a high school library, a junior high library, a middle school library, and a number of elementary school libraries. In fact, I have been a librarian for nigh on thirty years. I would be hard pressed to say how many I have read, and I have actually written a few. And a book never ceases to delight me. My home is filled with them, stacked with them, literally overrun with them. Ask me if I would rather spend my "mad money" on a shopping trip to the mall, or a trip to the bookstore, and there is no question what the answer would be. My children had at their fingertips virtually any classic, any poetry, a bit on virtually any topic, and plenty of "junk" besides. They never knew a time when they were not the owner of a "real book". It was a wonderful thing. I work in a school library with over 14000 books.and it is a wonderful thing. Books are everywhere, they can be picked up for pennies at a flea market, a yard sale, a Goodwill store. And something is missing. There are, as there have always been, those who value books, those who cherish books. But few there are who know how it is to HUNGER for books. There is a feast on the table. Yet less than 10% of our nation's population take advantage of free public libraries, few children spend their leisure time reading, adults log hundreds of hours watching a television but are hard pressed to say when they last read a book from cover to cover. I don't know anyone who ever walked a mile to borrow a book, or even wanted to. I worry sometimes, with seemingly so few "reading role models" if we might be raising a generation of children who can never get an answer to the question, "What should I check out this week? What did you read when you were my age?" And I worry sometimes, how often the question is asked. What a shame to have such a feast on the table.and so few who notice it is there. I hope my grandchildren ask the question. I want to tell them about Copper-Toed Boots, and The Boxcar Children, and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. I want to tell them about Little Women, and the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come. And if they would like.Nana would love to take them to a bookstore and get them a book of their very own.a real one, with chapters, and hard covers. Nana would love to see them hungry for a book. And Nana would love to know that when they grow up, their children will ask the same question their great grandmother did. I know my audience. You read, or you would not bother to wish to receive this column. Many of you are of a generation who well knows what it was to "hunger" for a book, and no feast on the table. I have no grandchildren as of yet, but many of you do. Please, if you haven't already, won't you tell them what you read when you were their age?

    2. Bill Clody
    3. Hi, I'm Bill Clody the new Walker County GaGenWeb Coordinator. A portion to the site that Sherry used to maintain is back up at www.rootsweb.com/~gawalker . It is far from complete but the subject of this message is that the Surname pages are back up. Sherry had not been able to do but minimum maintenance on the site for almost two years and I do not have any emails that may have been posted to her relative to the Surname List. You may want to go visit and if you are no longer researching a particular surname send me an email. Also if you are researching a surname and are not listed and would like to me added. Send me an email. The link on the surname pages automatically comes up with Walker County Surname in the Subject line. I am asking everyone to leave the subject line as is and add your surname interest in the body of the message along with your email address and years of interest. The rest of the site will be going up as quickly as I can get it there. I cannot just put the! html up that was already there because I need to add new links to it, remove old ones and above all remove all of the old Geocities Banners and counters. Some of you who have old browsers may have problems because some of the pages do contain layers. I would suggest visiting either the Microsoft site or the Netscape site and grabbing an up to date browser. Netscape is at 4.76 or 6.0 and IE is at 5.5.

I have spent the last few hours going through some of the maps and it helped me so much to understand some of the strange migration patterns of my ancestors. Enjoy, and have a wonderful weekend.

    2. Kathleen Burnett
    3. Dear List Members, Remember as you think about posting a message to the list regarding Memorial Day, that some of our members are not from the United States. We have members from England, Canada, Mexico, Scotland, Ireland and Australia, just to name a few. Please keep this in mind as you send your messages regarding honoring those of our ancestors who fought in wars, served in the military and gave their lives for our beliefs and for the freedoms we hold dear. Our members from other countries also have ancestors who fought, and gave their lives for the beliefs and for the freedoms of their country. We in the genealogical community need to continue to remember that we are a world wide family which is formed from those of many nations, cultures, beliefs and history. This Country was built by those who migrated here from lands around the world. Their history is a part of us as our history is a part of them. I ask you to remember all those who have given their lives in military service world wide this weekend and please show the respect due to each of our members, no matter where they are from or what country they or their ancestors fought for. I appreciate each of you. Have a save weekend. Kathleen Burnett List Mom

    1. Re: [GAWALKER] NEW LAW ON ARTIFACT HUNTER'S IN GEORGIA.
    2. I know this is a genealogy site but since this was already posted I believe it needs to be addressed. This law is completely unnecessary, all states have trespassing laws that the landowner may use to prosecute personnel who were not invited to be there. This law has nothing to do with the private landowners rights but simply another step in making it illegal for law-abiding people to collect artifacts. Most antiquity codes make an item over one hundred years old fall in this range. Soon you won't be able to keep your most treasured family items because you won't be able to prove where they came from. In Texas it is still legal to dig on private property with the landowners permission and I feel for the people of Georgia who have already lost another personal right. There are already laws in effect to protect federal, state, county and city property. Don't get me wrong people who trespass, dig up graves for strictly personal gain need to be addressed but this law will do nothing to keep them from trying. Remember a few bad apples does not ruin the whole barrel.
