Hi Members Please if someone asks you for information its because they are trying to help, sometimes an outside source can find new information that has slipped by you as they have a greater or different knowledge base to draw on..or know someone who can access that knowledge base for them :o) All members on this list and many others offer their time and services in the interest of serving the greater community at no cost to the requestor. Just like in real life things get confused and tones are taken the wrong way, being no body language to read on list and typing sentence is inadequate in many cases as to how the person feels.. can (and does) lead to people getting upset when none was intended.. Please read all posts as neutral, we are not here to take one another to bits for misinformation but to help all in their passion of searching for their ancestors and sifting through the many resources now available online, microfiche, books, and any other resource that may become useful in our quest for more knowledge of the past history of our extended family members. cheers Jewelly Western Australia Shift your problems to challenges.  When you have problems, you worry about them.  When you have challenges - you are working, applying, and attacking your plan to get results. This shift in thinking from problems to challenges is important in making tension an asset. --- On Tue, 17/11/09, Kathy Pearson <kathypea@yahoo.com.au> wrote: --- On Tue, 17/11/09, Kiss My Art Design Studio <indash@optusnet.com.au> wrote: > From: Kiss My Art Design Studio <indash@optusnet.com.au> > Subject: RE: Thomas PRETTY - South Australia look-up please > To: "'Kathy Pearson'" <kathypea@yahoo.com.au> > Received: Tuesday, 17 November, 2009, 4:15 PM nanz-bounces@rootsweb.com] > On > Behalf Of Kathy Pearson > > MargM > Subject: Re: Thomas PRETTY - South Australia look-up > please > > MargM, you have just confirmed my reasons for hardly ever > using this list > any more. > 1.
