This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Fh.2ADI/5801 Message Board Post: This is it!!!! The easy money making opportunity. Don't delete this at least read it. I promise you will regret it if you do not read. People are making thousands in just 2-4 weeks so easily!!!! You will receive PayPal payment notifications (money from people to you) to you constantly if you take a minute to read this newsletter. This is something that I wouldn't normally even look at, except that; I had read an article in the Wall Street Journal about PayPal and making money. This has also been seen on the Oprah Winfrey Show. There have also been other articles written about PayPal in other well-recognized journals. And because I'm a member of PayPal I knew that this was real and would work. If you would like to make a few thousand dollars REALLY FAST, then please take a moment to read this SIMPLE and EASY program that I'm sharing with you. This is the fastest, easiest program you will ever do. Complete it in one hour and you will never forget the day you received it! Oh! When I say FAST, its email-type fast! The newsletter and all payments are made on the Internet by email all you need is access to the internet. NEED PROOF? Here are two testimonials from individuals who decided to invest nothing more than just a little of their time: Tony Stevens, CA: "Hey! I got your e-mail! This ROCKS! I sent it to all of our frat brothers ....I'm up to $8,285. Unbelievable, I never thought this would work, but I gave it a try figuring if it doesn't work all I am out of is $5 can't believe I almost passed this up." Mary Gathers, SC: Hello, This is Mary. I only have one thing to say to you ..OH MY GOD!!! I sent out 200 e-mails and posted it wherever I saw a message board or forum like you said and went on vacation. When I got back, my PayPal was up to over $12,000!!! and this is money I can spend immediately I owe you! You are probably still skeptical at this time, especially with all the different programs out there on the Internet. You should be if you are human. However, I am sure once you read the following you will agree this is a very powerful and exciting opportunity that WORKS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. HERE'S HOW IT WORKS STEP 1 - E-mail $5 U.S from your PayPal account to the FIRST (#1) NAME on the list below along with a note saying, "Please add me to your mailing list", this makes it legal. If you do not have a PayPal account open one for free at the link at the end of this email. STEP 2 - Edit the list at the bottom of this letter. Remove the FIRST (#1) NAME from the list after you send them the $5 U.S. Move the other 2 names UP and ADD YOUR NAME to the list in the Third(#3) position. STEP 3 - Email 200 (the more you send out the more money you will receive) copies of this letter and post where you see message boards or forums. And that's it. So, anyone's MAXIMUM INVESTMENT is ONLY a one time $5. Please note this is 100% legal - refer to U.S. Postal and Lottery Laws, Title 18, Section 1302 and 1341, or Title 18, Section 3005 in the US code, which state a product or service must be exchanged for money received. In this case you are being placed on a mailing list (a service) for $5. RESPONSE Unlike many other programs, this THREE LEVEL PROGRAM is very realistic. It is easier and much much faster. Because of this, the response rate for this program is VERY HIGH and you can do this as many times as you want. Consider this, with 200 mailings: -a response rate of 1% from all people who send out the letter generates $40 you send out 200 emails 1% responds(200x.01=2) those 2 people send out 200 at 1% (2x200x.01=4) this is where you make your money when you go to the number 1 spot and this just keeps coming in because people are still sending it out. those 4 people send out 200 at 1% (4x200x.01=8 x$5=$40) this is only at 1% you can't get any better than this. -a response rate of 5% generates $5,000 -a response rate of 10% generates $40,000 WOW I would be sending out 5,000 emails!!!!! Work out the rest of it for yourself. Just don't get too excited! Due to the LOW INVESTMENT, SPEED and HIGH PROFIT POTENTIAL this program has a VERY HIGH RESPONSE RATE. Follow the SIMPLE instructions and in two or three weeks, even assuming a low response rate you can still receive thousands in your accoun in a couple of weeks! Not bad for 1 hour's work and $5! GO AHEAD! TRY IT! EVEN IF YOU MAKE JUST $3,000 OR $4,000, WOULDN'T THAT BE NICE? IF YOU TRY IT, IT WILL PAY! CAN YOU DO IT MORE THAN ONCE? OF COURSE YOU CAN! This plan is designed for everyone to send out a minimum of 200 emails each. However, you are certainly not limited to 200. Send out as many as you want. GO FOR IT! THE MORE YOU PUT INTO IT, THE MORE YOU GET OUT OF IT! Your contact source is UNLIMITED! Consider that MILLIONS of people surf the Internet everyday, all day and all over the world! Remember 50,000 (and rising) new people get on the Internet every month. PayPal has 12 MILLION members. It boggles my mind to think of all the possibilities! You can find email addresses anywhere (forums, message boards, yahoochat, hotmail, people who send you emails). This is what you need to do to get started!!!!!! The very first thing you need to do is go to PAYPAL, and sign-up for an account if you don't already have one. It takes about two minutes and is one of the securest ways to transfer money. Make sure you upgrade to a premiere account or you will be limited to $100 (unless that is all you want to make), everything is free of charge or else I wouldn't be doing it myself. You can add funds to your paypal account by credit card, check, or transfer from bank account(2-3days). Then e-mail the $5.00 from your PayPal account to the FIRST (#1) name on the list along with a little note saying, "Please add me to your mailing list."(again this makes it legal) Only the FIRST person on the list gets your name and $5 gift. To send your newsletter by email, copy this ENTIRE letter and paste it in the message of your e-mail. 1. Go to EDIT and SELECT ALL. 2. Go to EDIT and SELECT COPY. 3. Go to your email account and go to (COMPOSE) a new email message(ensure its PLAIN TEXT so everyone can view it). 4. Fill in the ADDRESS and SUBJECT box. 5. Go to EDIT and PASTE. Now you can edit the addresses with ease. Delete the top address, add your address to the bottom of the list. Do not add your name in the first position in order to earn money fast(be honest). If you do that, you will only reach people you sent an e-mail to and then your name will be immediately removed from the first position and you can't reach more people, thus making no more money. But if you add your name on the THIRD position, there will be tons of people receiving emails with your name first later. DO NOT forget to send $5 by PayPal (along with your note) to the TOP E-MAIL address before deleting it. Once YOUR version of the letter is ready, just start emailing. That's all there is to it! There should be multiple $5.00 bills in your PayPal Account in a couple of weeks. When your name reaches the first position in a few days, it will be your turn to collect your MONEY! 2,000 to 4,000 people like yourself, who are willing to invest one hour to receive thousands in cash, will send the money to you. Imagine thousands for one hour's work and $5! This is real money that you can spend on anything you wish! Just deposit it to your own bank account or spend it directly from your PayPal account! It's just that EASY! I think its WORTH IT, don't you? Each time you run this Program, just follow steps 1 through 3 and everyone on your gift list benefits. SIMPLE ENOUGH? YOU BET IT IS! Besides, there are no mailing lists to buy (and wait for) and trips to the printer or copier and you can do it again and again with your regular groups or gift givers, or simply just start up a new group. I've been watching these types of programs for years and this is about as EASY and FAST as you can get it. There are NO STAMPS, NO ENVELOPES, NO COPIES TO BE MADE... Just a little effort and goodwill! PLEASE PLAY FAIR That's the key to this program's success. Playing by the rules will not cost anything but your time and if everyone plays fair, everyone WINS. Be SURE and PAY the first person on the list. This is proof that you paid to be put on the list. That is the service rendered to make all this legal. Your name must run the full gamut on the list to produce the end results. Sneaking your name higher up on the list WILL NOT produce the results you think and it only cheats the other people who have worked hard and have earned the right to be there. So please play by the rules and the $$$ will come to you. $$$Let's ALL make some serious money$$$ Here are the 3 people to start with: Signup and send $5.00 to the FIRST person! 1. fjkrahn@shaw.ca 2. frequency660@hotmail.com 3. mwm12@yahoo.com When you signup for PayPal, you can start accepting payments instantly. As the world's number one online payment service, PayPal is the fastest way to open your doors to over 40 million member accounts worldwide. Best of all, it's completely free to sign up! GOOD LUCK and THANKS!!!!!!!!!! You won't beleive it !! Link to Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_home

He is the son of James & Rosetta Marshall, I know he was in Illionis in 1900 he was in Cook Ilionis. He married a Veronica who was from Indiania and was born Nov 1877. I know Stanley was also in Plymouth Michigan prior to his marraige. They had a son named Wilbur Marshall who was born Jan 28, 1899 in Illionis.I know he was on the World War 1 draft cards. In 1910 they are found again in Cook Illionis and they have a daughter named either Maxcine or Marcine it is hard to make out she was born in 1909. If anyone else is looking in the Cook Illionis census record could they lool up these names for me and try to make out the daughters name. In 1920 I find only Veronica & Wilbur but they spell here name as Verona and she is now divorce from Stanley and I cant find the daughter after that so maybe she went with the father maybe to Canada I dont know. If anyone knows those names please help, ! or maybe Stanley and Maxcine went back to Newmarket Ont. If anyone is in the York census records could they look up Stanley and Maxcine I know Stanley was born In Newmarket Ont. Please help me Lisa

Hi, Karima asked me if I would copy the IL list with any Illinois links I send to another list. I told her I'd be glad to...so I joined this morning. As far as I know, I have no one in Illinois to look for...yet. My ancestors are almost all from England to Connecticut. I fished through my files and below are about half of what I've sent in the past year or two. I'm sure most of them are duplicates but maybe you can find a website or two that are new to you. They are in no particular order other than alphabetical by county and then the subject is up for grabs. I'll send the rest tomorrow or the next day.

I tried to respond, but kept getting returned Emails from all the addresses you provided, even to the list. Anyway, the 1900 census should tell where Thomas H. was born and the month and year. It should also tell where the parents were born. This information would be helpful to those trying to help you. Joan

The 1900 census for Thomas H. should tell you the month and year he was born and what state. It should also tell you where his mother and father were born. This would be a big help in helping you. Joan Incidentally, something is wrong with the personal address you put in your Email.

We'll need more information than that provided. Is Spiller her maiden or married name? When was she born? Where was she born. Where did she live in Illinois? What's her first name? If she died, when? Joan

Hello Iam hoping some kind soul will do 2, 1850 census lookups for me. The first is Thomas RILEY in the household would be Mary,she was probably in her 40's. William, he would have been about 3- 5 yrs old and a female,either Thomas's daughter or sister, Bridget,Delia,Fidelia...name is in question, she would have been about 6 yrs old. In 1860 this family minus, Bridget she was married, were in Tompkins Twp, Warren County IL, I can find nothig previous to 1860..and they came to the USA as far as we can tell in the early to mid 1840's. Bridget was 16 the 1860 cenus says and she was married to Lawrence FITZSIMMONS,also in Tompkins Twp Warren County, he also came to the USA in the 1840's but can find absolutley nothing about him before 1860 either. Iam desperately trying to find anything before 1860 for either family so any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated. Thank you..and Happy Easter to you all. Cris
