Has everyone heard that Ancestry is closing down the Rootsweb mailing lists in March? Is the admin of this list going to try and migrate the group somewhere else? We have started a new Idaho Genealogy message board/mailing list at "Groups.io" ( https://groups.io/g/IdahoGenealogy ) We want to place links to any county groups or specialized Idaho lists or groups on the home page. Of Course, anyone interested in Idaho genealogy is encouraged to join this new group I hope to hear from you RandyC

I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as the home of Mrs. G. or S. JOHNSON of Nezperce, Idaho. The photograph is of a group of people including adults and children sitting and standing in front of a building with the note "at our old place in Nezperce" written on the back of the photograph. I'm hoping to locate someone from the JOHNSON Family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this JOHNSON Family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

Mike, if you do not hear from anyone else, I would be happy to help you with this.

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Emma STILLWELL which was taken at the J. A. Winter Studio in Eugene City, Oregon. If the photograph appears to have been taken in the 1870's or 1880's with Emma appearing to be in her early teens at the time the photograph was taken.

Dear List, Would anyone have access to, or be able to tell me how I can find out, where a list of burials might be located for the Lookout Cemetery in Nez Perce, ID? I have become interested in a character named Elmond Skelton who lived in the Nez Perce area in the early 1900’s. He had been married to my aunt. He was convicted of adultery in 1926 and spent several years in the Idaho State Pen. in Boise. He and my aunt must have divorced sometime before 1927 when she married again. I had no prior knowledge of this earlier marriage until I stumbled across the information in the Idaho marriage index. I found a tree on ancestry that says that Elmond Skelton is buried in the Lookout Cemetery in Nez Perce, ID and I would just like to confirm the information. Thanks for any assistance!!

Two daughters traveled to Idaho with them in the early 1900s: Lorene (?) and Mildred "Millie", who married ? MILLER. If someone in Lewiston could *please* look up Edward and Cora Kelso, I would appreciate it. Thanks! Ashley from Kalamazoo, MI
