Keith & Connie Thank you for the congratulation. <<<<<<Congratulations, Gary, since your submitted names have generated the largest number of responses so far. I also commend the Louisa County list members for sharing their replies with all of us and not replying privately. You never know when a name dropped casually will strike a receptive ear and help us tear down some of the brick walls we have on various lines. It would appear that Susie did that for you, Gary. And Janice may soon do the same! To each and all of you I would say "Keep up the good work.">>>>>>>> You are Soooo right about tickling receptive ears. I have certainly learned a lesson. You know, I even debated about whether to go private with my correspondence or not. -- Sure glad I didn't. What is really remarkable to me, is that my initial request of you didn't involve the JAMES name at all other than the casual reference to a lost sibling. I'm amazed ..... and very thankful to this list and to all who responded with bushels of help. Bless you all. Gary James -- Oklahoma pentaby@alltel.net
