Hi all, Tomorrow is March 1st, & the day we're supposed to start our surname project. Due to a recent illness--mine, I need to postpone this for another week. I prefer to start March 7th, since Monday is my favorite (& only)grandchild's 5th birthday! Ok? Our first surname will be AUSTIN/AUSTEN, so if you have any info of any kind on this surname, please prepare to submit it to the list (GAWALTON-L@rootsweb.com) on Monday, March 7th. All our AUSTIN researchers need to submit what you know, want to know, & any other info pertaining to your surname. Also, if you have not submitted your surnames for our "Surnames of Interest" section on our web page: http://www.rootsweb.com/~gawalton/ please do so. If you have any questions on this project, feel to ask me or the list! We have collected another $8 towards our census project. This means we now have $190 for our next census purchase! Good job!!!!!! Some of the pledges have not been donated yet, so if you haven't made yours, please do so. Any of our newer "Gen-kids" have any questions, ask, ask, ask! I got word today that USGENWEB is being mailed the 1820 census images tomorrow--I"M SOOOO EXCITED!!!!! Also, anyone that has a microfilm reader, where did you get yours??? I still haven't found one that's reasonable enough, so am looking for any & all ideas! More later, love ya'll, Momma Walton <>< I call on the Lord in my distress, and he answers me. Psalms 120:1
