<< Would coping a book not be copywrite infringment? Just asking the question. >> Good point. Randy has the copyright. That's why I'm keeping the signed hard-copy of Randy's permission to put his book on-line. We can put it on-line with the understanding that there will be no charge for it by anyone, to anyone wanting to read and research from it, and that no one is allowed to copy and print it to sell to anyone. Also, Randy mentioned in his letter: "Please be aware that since the book was printed and distributed, I have obtained additional and correcting information." Nancy

Would coping a book not be copywrite infringment? Just asking the question.

Hi, I'm looking for any information regarding a Janette HANDLEY shown on the 1891 Census for Waterbeach in Cambridgeshire,England as being 17 and born Kansas USA , she was staying with her Grandparents John & Alice Handley. I believe her father was Uriah Handley who was born 1851 in Waterbeach her mother Sarah Ann (nee Mason) My grandfather Arthur William Handley is also missing after his wife, Lily MURFITT died in Melbourne Derbyshire, England in 1906 and their four children had been found homes. So any info on an Arthur William Handley born Littleport Cambridgeshire England in 1871 according to my mother he was carrying a tractor around with him and may have gone to Australia. So any news of a tractor from Cambridgeshire greatly appreciated. Alan

Hey you! I just got two messages from my neice and I still can't retreive them. My clock is still haywire and the date too, amongst other things. I have a friend who does all the computers for the college and he is a poor working dad who could use some money. I'm about to let him clean this up. Would that be wise? Awaiting your reply. -----Original Message----- From: WWGCDG@aol.com <WWGCDG@aol.com> To: HANDLEY-L@rootsweb.com <HANDLEY-L@rootsweb.com> Date: January 07, 1999 9:46 PM Subject: Re: [HANDLEY-L] Test Again >Still got you. >

We have a volunteer to help transcribe (type) Randy Handly's book if anyone who has a copy would be willing to make copies of some pages. Anyone interested? Nancy

Alan, I'm forwarding your message to the Handley group. There are 139 email addresses subscribed to this list, so your chances are better with them than with relying on MY memory!!! Please let me know if you would like to join the group.

I'm looking for a little info, on the 1891 census for Waterbeach in Cambridgeshire is a Handley family John & Alice and their grandaur is shown as Jeannette Handley aged 17 born in KAnsas USA. Her father I am sure was Uriah Handley altho I dont know when he emigrated, his wife was Sarah Ann Mason. I was wondering if you had come across any reference to Uriah Handley born in Cambridgeshire or his daughter Jeannette. Alan >>

Forwarded: << Subj: {not a subscriber} Hanley Ancestors Date: 10/16/1999 8:45:25 PM Central Daylight Time From: KKarl18@aol.com To: Handley-L@rootsweb.com My late mother-in-law was a Hanley. I would like to trace her Hanley ancestry, but I know so very little of her people. Her grandfather was Archibald Hanley, born in Capetown, South Africa (aboard a ship, so the story goes). Archibald died in 1936. Archibald was married to Mabel Squires who was born in Topeka, Kansas. Does this data sound familiar to anyone out there? Any help you can give me will be GREATLY appreciated.

Tennessee the Volunteer State 1769–1923: Volume 2 GUST On the 23d of January, 1879, at Christiana, Tennessee, Mr. Miller was married to Miss Nancy Tennessee Jameson, daughter of Thomas Hamilton and Catherine (Donnelly) Jameson. Her ancestors have been prominent in the history of both England and America.

<< Subj: FYI: Cemetery at Okeana, OH Date: 10/11/1999 11:07:01 AM Central Daylight Time From: rememberbooks@erols.com (Richard L. George) =============== "Visit to the George Burying Ground, Okeana, OH, October 8th, 1999" The location of a number of marked and unmarked graves for George and related family members may still be readily located near Okeana, Butler County, OH. Directions: From the Cincinnati area, take state road 126 through Ross and Shandon to Okeana. As you follow 126 to the NW, the Okeana-Drewersburg Road forks to the left in Okeana shortly before you reach the only bank office we saw in town. Still in or very near town, you cross a one-lane bridge. South Dwyer Road is a left turn, just after the bridge, and is clearly marked by a road sign. In approximately one mile, the small cemetery is clearly visible on the left (due to numerous tombstones), directly adjacent to the road, just beyond a private home on the same side of the road, and across the road from a cornfield. There is no flat parking available; but I was able to pull off into, then beyond a shallow ditch on the cornfield side of the road, leaving the car parked strongly tilted toward the road. (I wouldn't attempt that with a top-heavy vehicle or trailer. Perhaps one of the two private homes nearby would permit parking for a brief visit.) The cemetery has apparently been neglected at some point(s?) in its history, as there are broken and doubtlessly some missing tombstones. However, at present, it is in very good maintenance, as someone is keeping it mowed and trimmed; some fallen stones have been re-erected; some old headstones have apparently been replaced with modern headstones; and the perimeter is enclosed in a wire fence with a chained but unlocked gate. The surrounding country is beautiful, green, rolling farmland. The property is about the size of two small suburban house lots or one large suburban house lot. I'd guess it contains around a hundred (?) graves, though fewer headstones. The terms "old George cemetery" or "George Burying ground" may be somewhat misleading, as this small cemetery contains grave markers for numerous other families, only two of which (George and Handley) I'm sure are related to the George line. Nor are all the George and Handley plots together within the cemetery. There are several George grave markers, though none identifying Reuben George or Ann(e) Handley George, whom other records state are buried here. All the George markers were of a soft stone which has now weathered about half-away. Here are the details from those we found (the slash character represents a line break on the stone): (in-ground marker) JOSHUA GEORGE / DIED / FEB. 25 1836 / AGED (blank) Apparently, the "DIED" and "AGED" portions were pre-cut on "ready-made" markers; the "aged" portion on this one was never carved. It is not worn away; it was just left blank. (standing decorative tombstone) CATHERINE /wife / of / Joshua George / DIED / Oct 29 1862 / AGED / (illegible) 3 mos (standing decorative tombstone) REBECCA J. / WIFE OF / A.T. GEORGE / DIED Sep. 30 1865 / Aged 30(?) yrs (illegible) (standing plain tombstone) blackened (with moss or mildew, whatever blackens old tombstones), partly illegible but containing the name "GEORGE" near the top in uppercase letters. "died 1868" Located next to tombstone of Rebecca J., described above. There are two Handley tombstones, larger than any of the George headstones, and made of much harder stone, with the result that the lettering is completely legible, virtually unworn. Perhaps these Handleys could afford more expensive work: (large plain standing tombstone) IN / memory of / ARCHEY HANDLEY. / who departed this life / August 7th 1842; / Aged 53 years 5 mo. / and 19 days. (large plain tombstone, standing but at strong tilt) IN / memory of / RABECCA. / Consort of / Archey Handley, / who departed this life / Nov. 14th 1839; / Aged 50 yrs. Note: the spelling of Rabecca is from the stone. The local historical society meets monthly in the metal town building adjacent to the Methodist Church on Okeana-Drewersburg Rd. The meeting date and time is posted on a public bulletin board at the bank. The friendly bank staff helped us confirm the location of the cemetery by calling a local woman active in the historical society. -- Rick & Peggy George >>
