Hello, There is another interesting story in the daily "Mass Moments" e-mails this morning: http://www.massmoments.org:80/moment.cfm?mid=354 It's a story about Paul CUFFE and his brother "of Westport" in 1815. And it's about his "Back to Africa" effort. Betty (near Lowell, MA) P.S. I wonder if there is a List which is about "African-Americans" / "black-Americans" in the Colonies. I used the "Find a List" feature and found: http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/other/Ethnic-African/AFRICANAMER-GEN.html http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/other/Ethnic-African/MA-FREEDMEN.html Just a reminder that there are many Lists with many Subjects, and some are unusual - and you can find them using the "Index" feature. And don't forget to check out all the "Other" and "Miscellaneous" categories. http://lists.rootsweb.ancestry.com/index/index.html
