I'm looking for anyone who has any information about the Von Rowland line. I'm trying to find one of the families that migrated to the U.S.A. Not sure when, but my husband thought his name was a Gustov or Gustof Von Rowland before he migrated to America and changed it to Rowland. I'm told he had a lot of mistresses you took his name so its awfully hard to track people down. What I have so far is not much. My husband's grandfather was a James Rowland, married a Helen Ryan. James's father was a Joel *Benjemen* Rowland. *not sure if correct spelling I believe he was married to an Elizabeth Maria Gram. Above that I can't find much. I thought maybe if I started at the Gustof Rowland and work my way down it might be easier due to the lack of information. I am also looking for information on Wozniak's. That is my side of the family. We are looking for anyone who can connect to our family in Minnesota. I can only go back a few generations. If you have any information no matter how little, please email me at Ella.VonRowl...@gmail.com Thanks for any help

A few people have responded positively to the idea of having a genealogy software development forum on YahooGroups, so I've started it. If you are interested, you can have a look at it here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gensoft/ I've already sent invitations to some to join it. Be warned -- it is not for novices. It is *not* the place to ask questions like "I've just started my genealogy, which program should I use?" The best place to ask that sort of question is in the soc.genealogy.computing newsgroup. But it *would* be useful to have experienced users of genealogy programs (or even gener4al programs that they use for genealogy) to share their expertise, and say what features they'd like to see improved. If you've ever felt "I wish I had a program that could do such and such." Then feel free to come and sahre it in the group, and see if anyone would be willing to help implement your idea.

On the Legacy user group and elsewhere various people have discussed things like using MS Acess to manipulate Legacy data, and various other things relating broadly to genealogy software development. We don't all have exactly the same concerns, but I think they overlap sufficiently to make it possible to have useful conversations and share ideas. It would therefore be nice if we could get together in a forum where such discussions would not be off topic, and go beyond the scope (or remit, as Brits say) of the forum. I've tried to discuss tuch things in the soc.genealogy.computing newsgroup, which seems to be the logical place for it, though people also discuss things like how to do this or that in such and such a program, and most only seem to be interested in that. The advantage of having such discussions in a newsgroup is that it is publicly accessible, and therefore relatively easy for others to find. To have useful discussions, one needs a critical mass of interested people. I've tried to start discussions on the relative merits and features of Clooz and Custodian and there has been no response. Another advantage of newsgroups is that and such software development needs input from users as well as developers. It's all to easy to design software that doesn't really meet the needs of users. With newsgroups, one can crosspost an idea for a program to various generalogy newsgroups, to get responses of a variety of genealogists, and set follow-ups back to soc.genealogy.computing. If those polled on such things are interested enough, they can easily subscribe to that newsgroup too. But failing that, perhaps one could start a newsgroup of YahooGroups or somewhere, and invite interested people to join. An advantage of that, compared with newsgroups, is that one can upload sample files of code or datya models etc, which other people can download and look at. One can set up an online database of interests and projects. The Legacy user group list isn't really a suitable place for discussing this, because it sometimes goes beyond Legacy, and some people who are not members of the Legacy list could also contribute. The people who participate do not need to be programmers (I'm not), but people who are willing to discuss what kinds of software would meet the needs of genealogists, where the gaps are, and how the gaps can be filled. If this message rings any bells with you, then if possible, join soc.genealogy.computing and respond there, or if you really think there is a need for a mailing list on the topic, and I'll start one on YahooGroups. -- Steve Hayes from Tshwane, South Africa http://www.geocities.com/Athens/7734/stevesig.htm E-mail - see web page, or parse: shayes at dunelm full stop org full stop uk
Good Day Steve, There are interesting 'bits and pieces' (otherwise known as 'features') in the different genealogy applications worldwide. I have discussed different concepts with developers since the late CPM+ and early DOS days. Just what do you have in mind? Best, Denise L. Moss-Fritch http://www.moss-fritch.com/Gen_Software.htm
David can you please contact me off line.

Some of them are commercial sites, but others are sites for individual family genealogies. Searching for Hawkins+genealogy+surname will cut the number of hits down to about 350,000. Good luck.

Anyone know of a specific surname site for Hawkins? I'm new to usenet. Seems like lots of surname sites. -- Deborah A. Hawkins

As generations for windows is no longer supported, I am thinking of changing to Legacy. I am however having problems getting my notes to transfer. Has anyone got an answer? Sue Wood
I'm new to usenet groups for Mississippi, Choctaw county. Or for the surname Hawkins -- Deborah A. Hawkins
Has anybody out there tested these two labs? I had my DNA tested by both of them, but they deliver a pretty confusing result for the Y chromosome (number of STRs): Oxford: DYS 389i: 11 DYS 389ii-i: 18 Genographic: 389-1: 14 389-2: 18 I don't know the relation between the two naming schemes. According to Oxford, they label the same locations on the chromosome. But this would mean that there is a contradiction between the STRs at DYS389i (11) and 389-1 (14). If this proves to be true, the whole analysis would be worthless... Genographic says that the loci are NOT the same! Does anybody know how these labels relate to each other?

Why is it that after I insert the details of my grandfather's wife I cannot see the same as I look at the family tree option ??????? Thanks
