Tom H. - Carol has taken it upon herself to provide a number of bios for individuals from NY who made the trek westward. I've found them generally interesting and I'm sure they benefit many of the list subscribers. The Bios seem well within the intent of this list. Being the host of web pages dealing with Madison Co., NY a few of the posts have provided nearly instant additions to my Bios area. I don't have to locate the source book, make copies, enter the info, etc. - with the addition of some html code Carol's notes are ready to put online. I suspect others have found this particular use; if Darci is lurking in the background she can confirm this. I look forward to additional items Carol may post...
