Dear Amy, I had not read this message when I answered your message to me, but I can certainly understand your hesitancy to drive alone with two children. If your husband could come, it would still be difficult. Hopefully, we can all meet again at Ebenezer. We would love to meet you and pray for a safe delivery for a healthy baby! Nancy Geiger Ford

Dear Anne, I look forward to meeting you at Ebenezer on Labor Day. We'll probably be there on Sunday afternoon also for the concert. You probably know that there is no place to buy food nearby Ebenezer. I made reservations for lunch on Labor Day at the Retreat Center at Ebenezer. Thanks for the info on Emily Geiger!. I'll add it to the file I have on her. I would love to know who her father was. Do you have any idea?? See you in Sept. Nancy Geiger Ford

Anne, As far as I can tell, the Cornelius in Florida was the son of Abraham. Cornelius, the son of Ulrich, was the one born in 1774...but as, you say, according to family lore. Then again, he was mentioned in that land transaction of the descendents of Ulrich to John, another son of Ulrich, along with Abraham, Felix, Rachel, and Mary...so it seems that Cornelius born in 1774 is the son of Ulrich and brother to those others. Now, supposedly the land he had in Wayne county came as a result of service in the War. He is in the 1820, 1830, and 1840 census of Wayne county. Then he dissapears. I thought he had gone to Florida or died. Then he was found in the 1850 census of Simpson County, MS in the household of his last child, Lewis. He dissappears after that census. Since he was 75 in the 1850 census, he could have died, but I cannot find a record of death in Mississippi. That Wiseman family I spoke about...still think the wife of George Wiseman, Temperance, was a daughter of Cornelius... also went to Simpson Co., MS from Wayne Co., GA and then they returned to Georgia between 1851 and 1860. Did Cornelius return with them? Did he die in Georgia?...Don't know and since so many Wayne country records went up in flames, I do not know if I ever will. I thought that maybe the land George Wiseman returned to farm could have been Cornelius' original land. I am trying to check that out as that might indicate a link. From what I can tell, the Cornelius called "Dutch" was Abraham's son and he supposedly went to Florida. The Cornelius buried in Camden county, is the son of Cornelius born to Ulrich, 1774. Let's not even go to the Cornelius who was the son of David Geiger! It gets awfully confusing, particularly because if you say Cornelius too fast, it becomes twisted on the tounge!!! I still cannot find a "record" on this Dutch in Florida, however. Guess I'll have to do more digging.

Cameron Andrew Frydrych was born August 15,2000 at 5:48pm.. He's 21" and weighed 10lbs. I am very proud of the fact that I had him completely natural with no drugs what so ever. He had a rocky start. The cord was wrapped around his neck and he had a hard time adjusting to the world. He stopped breathing three times. The first time was for 45 seconds. We didn't get to see him for a while. He stayed in the NICU until August 16, around 11:00pm. His blood sugar was dangerously low and they thought that he might have broken his collar bones because he has very broad shoulders. They wanted to keep an eye on his breathing also. He was taken off the iv fluids the 17th around 4:00pm and then had his last dirty diaper for a while at 9:00pm. He didn't dirty it again until around 8:00pm. We could have left at 6:00pm. only they were wanting him to go. As far as I am concerned. I hemoraged for a while. I was then put on four different medications to stop the bleeding. I only had a 2nd degree tear. He is a wonderful baby. He clicks his tongue when he is ready to eat. We didn't hear him cry until last night when we got home. He didn't even cry through all of the heal pricking every three hours. I am having a hard time nursing him though. I am having a hard time getting him to open his mouth wide enough. We had to give him an ounce of formula last night to get him rehydrated enough to come home. Now my milk has come in and we hope he will be alright without anymore formula. He looks just like his sister. We can't get over how much he looks like her. Blonde hair and blue eyes. He does have a dimple on his left cheek. Sooo cute! He could never wear the newborn diapers. And we were able to put the newborn going home outfit on him though. Amy

Susan, I wonder if we have two Cornelius's here. The little I have on Cornelius (b. 1 Feb 1774), brother of Abraham, Felix, John, Rachel and Mary has him settling in Florida, but it's mostly speculation. Maybe those land records will help when you find them. My notes: ===== ====== ===== "The Jerusalem Church Records" by George Jones shows, p. 64: "Cornelius, son of [left unfilled] Geiger in Ogeechee and his wife, was born Feb. 1, 1774, and baptized July 18, 1774. Sponsors were Mr. Rister (sic-Rester) and his wife". Family lore says this is son of Ulrich and Apollonia. See note on sister Rachel. 1811, Capt. James Bird's Co., 2nd. Reg. (Pray's) GA Militia Infantry. Discharged 15 Apr 1815 at Bryan Co. Court House. Put in for soldier's lot, #107 - 333 District, 9th District, 2nd Sec. of Indian lands now called Wayne Co., GA. Was there near Tuckerville, as head of family in 1820 and in 1840. Brother Felix also removed to Wayne Co. B. Burton says: "Corp. Jeremiah, Priv. Cornelius and Priv. Samuel Geiger were soldiers in Pray's Regiment, GA Militia of the War of 1812." I assume this is the same Cornelius that C.A. Geiger said was "born about the time they ran the British out of Georgia"; ... was called "Dutch"; ... that a family tale was that while living in Georgia, he and his kin fought in the Florida Indian Wars at Fort King (Ocala), and came back down later to settle ... and that this Cornelius died near Ocala.

Amy, I hope every thing goes well with you and the baby. I certainly would not want to make a trip like with two little ones. Tuesday would be a great day for the baby to be born. It's my birthday! Faye

Susan's message brings up another question... How do you go about correcting that error on all the data that is out there...???? I looked at the LDS Familysearch website out of curiosity, and that thing is rife with errors which have been disproven multiple times...just like FTM CD's... Anyone know how to begin making corrections, or at least new entries which will give researchers a clue regarding the errors??? Gerry GIEGER Look UP!

I still have not had the baby yet. My due date was last Thursday August 10th. Any day now. I am already 4 1/2 centimeters dialated and 90% effaced. Everyone keeps telling me that Tuesday is a full moon. Don't think I believe all that stuff, but it wouldn't be a bad day. If I don't have the baby before Wednesday, I am scheduled for a Non Stress Test and then Monday is my next regular appointment. Hoping not to wait that long. Don't hin kwe'll make the reunion as much as I'd like to go. I don't think I'll drag myself that far away with a newborn and two year old. The baby would only be around two weeks old. That makes for a long trip especially alone with a two year old also. If we could stay in a hotel it would be different, but the monsy is tight right now with all of the baby things and my husband is going to take another college course this term. He will then only have three classes left. Yeah! Maybe next time if there is one. Thank you Gerry for offering to help with the children. I don't think I could handle the trip in the car with the two of them. Six hours in a car is long for anyone.

Hi Everyone, Last month I posted a question related to Abraham Geiger born in 1801. Some of you responded with information apparently confirming his date of birth (Thanks again!). He is the son of Abraham and Mercy. What caused the question was that in trying to determine correct information on Abraham Harrell Geiger, whom I believe to be a son of Cornelius, every where I looked, he had the same DOB listed as that of Abraham Geiger, son of Abraham. Since the proof of DOB seemed to be on the side of AG and not AHG, I wasn't sure where to go next. Over the past couple of years, Dot Miller and I have exchanged information concerning AHG who is her ancestor. On my trip, I went to White Bluff Church and Cemetery where Abraham Porter Geiger and Anson Butler Geiger were buried. They died between 1855-1860, young sons of AHG and his wife Avie Jane Lee. In addition, I was looking for a grave for AHG as he died in 1870 and was in Chatham in the 1860 census according to Dot. There are a number places for unmarked graves. The cemetery records do not include an entry for AHG...but no one was there to ask at the time...late in the day. I wrote Dot a couple of days ago to tell her I was sending pictures of the graves when the pictures were processed. And then she sent back an interesting tidbit she had found a year ago...AHG was listed in the Chatham Co., 1860 census as Andrew H. Gegger...age 45, married to Avie Lee, same children listed. She asked if I think the DOB could be wrong since the first name was incorrect also. At first it did not register, but then the bulb clicked on!!! In the 1820 Wayne Co., census, in Cornelius' household, there is 1 male listed as being under 5. I always thought this was son Cornelius, but then he was born in 1821 so I sort of ignored it. But if it referred to someone born between 1815-1820, that certainly could be AHG! Now in the 1830 census, we find 2 males listed aside from Cornelius...One under 9...this must be Lewis born in 1824, and one between 9 and 14...this must be Cornelius. As AHG would be over 15, he is not reflected in the census...something not unusual as it seems that back then young men over 15 were out on their own. So, the conclusion is that AHG was born in 1815. He was only 37 when he married, not 51 which means he may not have been married prior to Avie Lee. At 51, we were constantly looking for another, earlier family. Can't prove any of this, but AHG fits the profile of having a DOB in 1815 instead of sharing one with AG in 1801. As the commercial states, "Just thought you would want to know!" Susan

Gerry- I know this is going to sound like a commercial. <g> BUT this is one of the things that is really great about having a database online with WorldConnect.

I just ran across a book that had an unexpected reference to Emily GEIGER and her famous ride. It's called, "There Is A River - The Story Of Edgar Cayce", by Thomas Sugrue. A.R.E. Press, Virginia Beach, VA. 1942 (50th Anniv. reprint; date not given). Cayce's dying grandmother was telling him "all about the Cayces." Her mother had been a granddaughter of old Shadrach Cayce, who left Powhatan Co., VA, to live in Franklin, TN. Quote: "One of Shadrach's brothers, Archibald, went to South Carolina," she said. "He founded the town of Cayce in that state. It's not much of a place now, but there's a famous Cayce house there, with a desk from Cornwallis's tent in it, and it was from that place that a young lady named EMILY GEIGER set out one day on a ride that was a lot more exciting than Paul Revere's." "And she told him, while twilight faded and the odor of wisteria came into the room on the night air, of how pretty, eighteen-year-old Emily Geiger in 1781 rode a hundred miles on horseback from Cayce to Camden, carrying a message from Gen. Greene to Gen. Sumter, advising that Lord Rawdon's forces were divided and could perhaps be defeated if both American armies moved quickly and joined each other for the attack. ..... (three more paragraphs, and) ... "She delivered her message, the Americans got together and won the battle, and if that isn't better than Paul Revere, you tell me." Unquote. It wasn't clear whether or not she meant to say Emily was a CAYCE relative. Maybe she didn't know. She told where other brothers went - said one went to IL and the one time they ever heard from him, he complained that he was being cheated out of some fence rails and was going to get the law on a fellow named Abraham Lincoln!

THANKS - Several people asked me for the Fix so here it is... First, let me explain that I copied my old harddrive to a CD with my CD-Writer, then installed the new larger drive...I copied the files with Windows Explorer to the new Drive, one at a time, and did not want to change the CD because it was my "baseline" The fix is so simple, I can't believe that I didn't remember it, but here it is: 1. Locate your file on your harddrive using Windows Explorer, and "right-click" on it with your mouse pointer; A menu will appear; 2. Select "Properties" (bottom of the menu) Another menu will appear; 3. There are three little boxes at the bottom - If there is a check in the "Read Only" box, uncheck it... That should do it... One other thing - My WordPerfect files were not affected by this.

Hello, This message was returned to me. I hope you got what you needed. Gene -----Original Message----- From: Gene L. Gyger [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, August 08, 2000 9:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [GEIGER] RE: Unidentified subject! Hello, The situation exists because of Windows and the Adaptec software running your CD drive. You CAN continue to read the data on the CD (click OK). If you choose OK, you'll notice that your screens are blue instead of yellow. The FTM and Adaptec software work together when your CD writer creates the backup or archive. It marks it unwritable so that your archive can be read by you or someone else but initially prevents anyone from changing it. Depending on what you want to do - - - You can fix the file so that it is writable on the CD writer it was created on. Or you can copy the file to any kind of a rewritable disk (hard disk, zip, cartridge, etc.) Though it is possible, I would not recommend changing the file to be rewritten on the CD writer drive. Especially if you're using even a slightly older version of Adaptec - and Windows 98 or Windows 2000. Adaptec has issued a disclaimer that this software is unreliable in certain situations under those operating systems. I have about as many problems and successes as I did before, so go figure. I would do what the designers intended, though I've not found it written anywhere. Copy your FTW file from your CD to something else. No need to rename it, but you can if you like. That's not the problem. Be sure that FTM is not running. Right click on the copied file. Click on Properties. The dialog box that pops up shows a check mark in Read-only. Click it to uncheck it. Apply. Close. Start FTM. Click FILE and pull it down. Click on OPEN FAMILY FILE. Select the file you've just fixed. It works as you expect!

Trying to open a FTM file but keep getting an error message saying "File exists with read-only attributes. Please use a differnt name" But gives no option to save as a new file or give it a new name... Anybody got any idea how to fix it... The file exists on a CD-rom disk which was copied off my old harddrive and intended to transfer to my new harddrive...but I don't mind renaming it...if that option was offered... ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ============================== Genealogy calendars, guestbooks and more: Visit RootsWeb's Resource Center at http://resources.rootsweb.com/ ============================== Search ALL of RootsWeb's mailing lists in real time.
