Margaret L.Bambie, According to the rules posted last night the only subjects that will be discussed on this list are to apply to Gallatin County, Illinois. I don't know how there could have been 150 messages about the discussion of the slave house (to delete) when there haven't been that many messages posted for the month of March. Why is it not ok to discuss the history of a house (of great historical interest) -situated in Gallatin County- on this list, but it be ok for you to use foul language in disguise? Alan Moore posted a message today that sounds fair and reasonable. If I can ring in here as a historian, we can have arguments (read discussion) over facts and principles if we all remember the concept of academic freedom. We simply need to agree to disagree, and after the point is made cease and desist. The information on the Crenshaw house is avaluable piece of local history, accomapnied by folklore and rumor. The job of the historian is to weed out the difference between rumor, folklore and fact, and get to what happened while ALWAYS remembering that different times held different moral values.

In the 1840 Gallatin Co. Census my gg grandfather Christopher C. Green is listed as a Greer. Are any of you researching the Berry Greer that is listed ...or is this another Green? Thanks for any help, Joann Green Coleman

There is a Thomas Bell listed in the 1840 Gallatin Co census and in the household there are three males, one 0-5 yrs., one 16-20, one 30-40 and one female 15-20 yrs. According to Gallatin Co land records James Bell, Thomas Bell and Robert Crenshaw lived close to each other. Does anyone have information about these Bell names? I found a Thomas Bell that married Deliliah Dalton in Pope County IL. This Thomas Bell was born in Kentucky in 1817.

I have the same e-mail address that I've had for at least three years and Jon can tell you that for a fact. He has written to me asking me for Crenshaw information. Why not let us share it with everyone? We have tried to discuss a subject that is important to us and seems to be of interest to others on this list. Maybe it would help if you would be more specific.

Jon, Do the newly stated rules of the list limit the discussion regarding the Crenshaw house? Much of the conversation discusses current issues regarding the house. Although these are current issues, it is the history of the Gallatin County house that is in question. Where exactly are you drawing the line on that subject? Consequently, if all Crenshaw discussion is blocked from the list, the list will merely consist of the usual lookup requests. Rose Park

Can you be a little more specific about the new rules? You stated the messages should be related to the subject of Gallatin County, genealogy, history, folklore,etc. Did I miss a message today? I don't recall anyone flaming another person. If I have something personal to say to someone I will send it to their personal address. Do you monitor the personal messages? _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com

Ok...let's all relax. I need you to stop doing all YOUR research and just concentrate on finding MY relatives! (Am laughing as I say that, I don't want any bricks thrown at me.) I need "proof" on Abraham Greer, son of Asa Greer and Rebecca Neighbors. This man married in Tenn., 1825 or so, had a son, William M. Greer i826/1827...and then, my mother's greatgrandfather, Francis Marion Greer was born in Gallatin county, Ills.,in 1830. By 1834 "the family" had moved back to Tenn. and by 1848, on into Morehouse Parish, LA. The term "family" came from memories of the youngest son of Frances Marion Greer, James A. Greer, but he didn't give us a clear indication of his grandfather's full name. James A. Greer only stated that his brother, Thomas Abraham Greer was named for his "paternal grandfather." Abraham Greer "appears to be the man", but, as I said, I need the proof that we have the correct fellow. If we do, I have the rest of the family ready to "fly." If this proves out, then my mother will end up being my father's sixth cousin. I have other ties to Greer, and they all lead back to Aquilla Greer (1716). Some of "us" think Abraham may have died in Ills. and that his wife, Margaret (Peggy) moved "home" to her family {Kinney}. Would any of you have resourses to find some record of Abraham Greer? God Bless each of you. Remember to tell your friends and family how important they are to you.

Listers I ask you to take a minute and read at least a part of what I write. This morning I read a message posted on this list that began "Hello people! This is getting irrational." The author further states she has an ancestor, who also had a salt lease, is listed in one census as being the largest slave holder in Gallatin Co is a part of history and he sits prominently at the top of her tree with all the other scallawags and scoundrels. As we have stated before, there were many slave owners in Gallatin County in the 19th century. Why is the Crenshaw family THE target?? Why not other slave holders? Could the real interest be the Crenshaw house? Why?? How did one family become the focus of so much attention?? Who started the finger pointing?? Why?? A discussion is one or more people exchanging opinions, ideas, etc. It should be done in a rational way. Why do you people want to stop those who are interested in discussing this. Is it because you are not interested in the subject? Do like the others who don't share the same interest you have. I'm not a trouble maker. I have feelings, opinions and concerns. It is not my intention to take away from your list. Can we not share it and get to know what each other feels without hostility?

Ginger, Well said. Best regards, Hugh

Sorry you were unable to grasp the comparisons. Ever been to the Anne Frank House? It is much smaller that the Slave House, but it speaks volumes to intolerance. My point is you should not remove that which reminds us of wrongdoings.

Along with burning down this house, perhaps we should encourage Amsterdam to do away with the Anne Frank house, as well. Oh yeah, let's not forget Auschwitz. -----Original Message----- From: Susan Newell [mailto:cherosis@semo.net] Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 7:02 PM To: ILGALLAT-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Naming Names? Excuse me? I don't think this calls for personal attacks! If I can't voice my opinion on this subject..what makes you think you have a right to? Yes Rose..since you had ancestors in this house..I guess you wouldn't want it destroyed. Maybe you should take care of this "wonderful" old Historic place. Surely you don't surmise that a "Slave House" would have been anything other than what the name of it implies! You and Cody need to re-read your previous messages..sounds like you are talking out of both sides of your mouth. Your former messages sounded to me like you didn't like the subject either. As for the Delete button..thanx for the advice..I have already used it on your messages. I will be Unsubscribing from this"whatever" list this is..I know you will miss me.
