Kay That is sage advice. Some wit might say, summer savory advice, but I would not be guilty of such unfunny puns. Unfortunately for my history and genealogy files, they were nearly all lost two weeks ago. I was sure I had put them into my zip- drive before washing and rinsing my hard disk. On restoring my system, I found them gone into the wide blue yonder If anyone sees them going by, please redirect them to yours truly. As Mehitabel used to say to Archie, "toujours gai, archi. toujours gai." Cheers all John

Hello List!!! Just thought I'd remind everyone to be sure to backup their genealogy info (and anything else of importance!) just incase Y2K effects your computer or your genealogy program. Don't want to lose all that hard work we've done !! Best wishes for a safe and happy New Year everybody!!! Kay

Roger that , thanks

I know you guy s talk big ,but you are still here ,and Merry Xmas to you

BAH! HUMBUG!! ;-)

And to you ,Sir!!!!!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!!!!!!!!!

Dear Cousins As our German ancestors might have said: "Ein frohes Weichnachtsfest und im neuen Jahr alles Gute" or a Happy Christmas festival and everything good in the New Year. Hope to see you at the Homecoming in September. John and Sherry

WHAT'S DIFFERENT II. WHERE DO I FIND THE ITEMS I USE NOW III. SITE MAP ============================================= I. WHAT'S DIFFERENT ============================================= The redesign incorporates the "tab" style used by many popular informational websites, including our sister site MyFamily.com. We have divided our site into HOME, SEARCH, LEARN, SHARE, SAVE, and SHOP tabs. There is also a HELP tab represented by a question mark "?". The content is mostly the same, but it should be much easier for you to get to it. We have added the TODAY@ANCESTRY area off the HOME tab. Here you will be able to find the all the information that is updated daily on our site. The SEARCH tab holds all our genealogical and historical databases and the ADVANCED SEARCH. You still will be able to search off the homepage, but you will want to explore the SEARCH tab to refine your researching. The LEARN tab holds all our self-learn and non-database resources. You will find research tips and guides that are necessary to start or advance your research. Our expert help and columns are also located here. The SHARE tab is the perfect area for you to collaborate with other family history researchers. Our most popular online applications like the Surname Communities and the Message Boards are located here. The SAVE tab is where you will go to record and preserve your family history research. Our Online Family Tree is located here. The SHOP tab is where you will go to purchase the world's finest software, books and other products that help you bring your family together. ============================================= II. WHERE DO I FIND THE ITEMS I USE NOW ============================================= The great news about the redesign is that the most used Ancestry links are still on the homepage, just ONE click away. Additionally some of the more popular items have been brought up to the front page for easier access. SEARCH - same place, on the homepage right up in the center; ANCESTRY DAILY NEWS - same place, on the homepage on the right side; NEW DATABASES - same place, on the homepage on the upper right side; POPULAR DATABASES (SSDI, Census Records, Ancestry World Tree) - on the homepage right below the search area; NEW SITE FEATURES - on the homepage below the search area. ============================================= III. SITE MAP ============================================= HOME - Today@Ancestry - Thinking of Joining? - About Ancestry.com - Partner with Us SEARCH - Advanced Search - Search by Locality - Search by Record Type - Search Help LEARN - Getting Started - Learning Center - Reference - Publications - Articles and Columns SHARE - Surname Community - Message Boards - Ancestry World Tree - Research Registry SAVE - Online Family Tree - MyFamily.com - Charts and Forms SHOP - Books - Software - Maps - Magazines - Forms and Supplies - Customer Service ____________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mailto:U-A26.77.337921@anclist001.ancestry.com and hit send, or if the email address is not clickable, simply copy the text to the right of the 'mailto:' command and paste it into your email application and hit send.

Treat the brothers and sisters of your ancestor as equals=E2=80=A6even if= some of them were in jail. 2. Death certificates are rarely filled in by the person who died. 3. When visiting a funeral home, wear old clothes, no make-up, and look like you have about a week to live=E2=80=A6the funeral director will give you any= thing you ask for if he thinks you may be a customer soon. 4. The cemetery where your ancestor was buried does not have perpetual care, has no office, is accessible only by a muddy road, has snakes, tall grass, and lots of bugs. . . and many of the old gravestones are in broken pieces, stacked in a corner under a pile of dirt. 5. A Social Security form SS-5 is better than a birth certificate because few people had anything to do with the information on their own birth certificate. 6. The application for a death certificate you want insists that you provide the maiden name of the deceased's mother=E2=80=A6which is exactly what you d= on't know and is the reason you are trying to get the death certificate in the first place. 7. If you call Social Security and ask where to write for a birth certificate, tell them it is for yourself=E2=80=A6they won't help you if you= say you want one for your great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather who died in 1642. 8. When you contact the state vital statistics office in your home state and ask if they are "online," and they respond, "on what?," you may have a problem. 9. A census record showing all twelve children in a family proves only that your ancestors did not believe in birth control. 10. Work from the known to the unknown. In other words, just because your name is Washington doesn't mean you are related to George. 11. With any luck, some of the people in your family could read and write . . . and may have left something written about themselves. 12. It ain't history until it's written down. (See #19) 13. A genealogist needs to be a detective. Just gimme da facts Ma'am. 14. Always interview brothers and sisters together in the same room. Since they can't agree on anything about the family tree, it makes for great fun to see who throws the first punch. 15. The genealogy book you just found out about went out of print last week. 16. A good genealogical event is learning that your parents were really married. 17. Finding the place a person lived may lead to finding that person's arrest record. 18. It's really quite simple. First, you start with yourself, then your parents, then your grandparents. . . then you QUIT. . . and start teaching classes in genealogy. 19. If it's not written down, it ain't history yet. (See #12) 20. In spite of MTV, computer games, or skate boards, there is always a chance that your grandchildren will learn how to read someday. 21. "To understand the living, you have to commune with the dead, but don't commune with the dead so long that you forget that you are living!"
