I'm glad you enjoy it, Jackie. We have loads of fun doing this stuff. We love being detectives--discovering the skeletons in the closets of Scott County and unearthing long-buried names, dates and forgotten events. Bandits or bootleggers, they all make our ancestry more interesting! Regards, Elaine Rathmann (Always on the look-out for dastardly deed-doers in Scott Co.)
