Keith, One comment about your sending info to a specific individual via the list instead of privately - the info you sent on the Gentzler family will help Ed, but also any Gentzler researcher who accesses the archived messages. I have been helped so many times by searching various mailing lists using the Rootsweb Interactive search engine, and I am ALWAYS thrilled to find exactly the kind of info you've sent to Ed via the list. So I say go for it! For those of you who do not know how to use this wonderful resource: 1. go to this site: http://www.rootsweb.com/ 2. scroll down to the Table of Contents and select - SEARCHES 3. scroll down and select - SEARCH A MILLION MESSAGES FROM OVER 16,500 MAILING LISTS 4. type in the name of the list you wish to research and hit ENTER 5. (if you don't know the EXACT name of the list you can find it under SEARCHES but instead of selecting SEARCH A MILLION .... choose (SEE ROOTSWEB MAILING LISTS FOR A LIST) - You can search surname lists or geographical lists - this is a wonderful source of information. Although not every mailing list has its messages archived, most do. Thank you, Rootsweb! Mari Nielsen Families I'm researching in Louisa Co. - Bedwell, Harnett, Honts, Wykert, Knight
