Hi, It will take me a couple of days or mooorrre..... to get into the swing as the 1860 just started but Larry Clark is handing out the pages, which is most of the load right now. I am also (slowly) working on an alpha CW list of Macoupin men only. We still desperately need typists for the 1860. In 3 weeks, Larry will not be available for page requests so if you can help, please ask him for page copies in the next 3 weeks. Larry Clark <leclark@digizen.net> If you have items which need to be added to the Macoupin County ILGenWeb page, please send them on. Any questions, holler. My observation, and I won't speak for Eric, is that there were political differences at the USGenWeb level. And, we all know the problems in politics. I hope and don't think that his love for genealogy was dampened by politics. Will get back to you soon. Gloria Frazier
