Hi Meg, Sorry you are having trouble finding me. I just returned from vacation last night and have been going though my email. Would love to hear from you.

It has come to my attention that OUR mail list is being used for questionable purposes. Please refrain immediately from posting anything other than request for the exchange of information data surrounding the GENTRY Surname. I am sure that they are many forums out there for advertisements, political agendas and personal interaction. So lets use them. Thank You for doing a good job up till now. "Happy Researching" Joseph Gentry, List Owner and Sponsor.

GIVE ME A BREAK!!! ISN'T IT A BIG ENOUGH INVASION OF OUR PERSONAL LIVES AS IT IS. RACE (WHY DO HISPANIC PEOPLE TAKE UP MORE SPACE AND REQUIRE MORE FUNDING THAN GERMANS), GENDER (DO MEN REQUIRE MORE SERVICES THAN WOMEN), NAME (MAYBE THEY MIGHT LOCATE AN ESCAPED CONVICT). NOW YOU WANT ME TO GIVE THEM THE LAST PIECE OF CLOTHING I HAVE. THIS IS AMERICA. I AM SORRY THAT YOUR GENEALOGY RESEARCH IS GOING SLOWER THAN YOU WOULD LIKE. BUT MY PRIVACY IS VERY PRECIOUS TO ME. MORE INVASIONS IN OUR LIVES AND WE MIGHT AS WELL GO AROUND SAYING "HEIL HITLER" AND LOOKING FOR ANOTHER WAY TO CATEGORIZE PEOPLE FOR WHAT EVER REASON WE CARE TO USE!

How to subscribe is the same as Gentry, just use the Acker name. Anyone needing help or information let me know. I'll be the owner of this list also. Happy Researching!! Joe Gentry [email protected]

Hello, cousins! Here's the census info I promised! It's limited in scope -- I was looking for Gentrys which might be connected with or provide clues to mine. I've located my Levi F. Gentry back to 1850, so most of the stuff is for that census. Maintaining formatting is nigh onto impossible, so I'll enter this in comma-delimited columns. Columns are as follows: page number dwelling number family number name age sex color profession value of real estate owned place of birth There are other columns on the census, but most have no data in them for these people, so I'm leaving them off.
