Hi Gail, - --------------------------------------------------------------- ....I believe copyrights expire after 75 years if not renewed, so if this is the case then anything copyrighted before 1924 (and not copyright renewed) is now public domain...... - --------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for clarifying that, now that you mention it, that is exactly correct!! Duh, sometimes I can't remember what I've read and where I've read it!! And, by the way, you are not ignorant, I appreciate what you did to help the rest of the list....your heart is definitely in the right place! : ) OK, folks, has anyone established exactly what year the Headley families moved from New Jersey to Pennsylvania? I know that it was after the Rev War, but prior to 1790.... anyone have a clue? Peggy
