Hi fellow Searchers: I have just read the note from Jim & Jenny who are on Soc. Sec. and are managing to contribute $24.00 a year. That is only $2.00 a month. Many of us could save that from Pop cans! I agree with them. It is just a matter of priorities. If you enjoy finding the information that is provided, you could pay a little in order to get more. Having the census records available would help all of us -- a lot. I have 10 years on Jim, and am also on a fixed income, but I have become a contributor. Have cancelled all my magazine subscriptions. Haven't time to read them anyway. I am always at this computer. Good luck to all in your searches. I have really enjoyed this particular list, even the life in the 1500s -- true or not. I did not, however, enjoy the letter that complained about those entrys and used profanity to do so. I hope he was booted from the list. That kind of thing is not called for under any circumstances. And information on how our ancestors lived is pertinent to genealogy. It makes our long-ago relatives seem more real. Thanks for listening. James A. and Georgia (DeMasters) Stubblefield
