Also, there is a query or two about the location of a town named Mooney. Within the next couple of weeks, I am going to start moving all of the old queries to the automated board so they are easier to search. Before I get started, I will send out an e-mail message to everyone who is on the mailing list for receiving automatic notification of new queries so you can unsubscribe yourself if you don't want to receive notification of these older queries. Something else you might want to check out is a new page on the Indiana GenWeb site where you can search all of the archived e-mail that has been sent to the various Indiana county mailing lists, including the INJACKSO-L list. The main page is at at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ingenweb/index.html The link to the mailing list search engine is at the bottom of the second table from the top of the page (under the waving Indiana flag) and is called, "Indiana Mailing List Search Engine." If you want to go to the search engine page directly, here is the URL: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ingenweb/inlists.html Once again, Beverly Weddle has gone out of her way to provide some great Jackson County information. She recently sent me a listing of all known cemeteries in Jackson County by township and it has now been posted at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~injackso/cem_listall.html Thanks a bunch, Beverly!! Also, we now have automated, searchable boards for posting Jackson County biographies, obituaries, wills, and military pension information. You can link to these boards from the main page of the Jackson County GenWeb site, or go to them directly with the following URL's: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/JacksonBios http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/JacksonObits http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/JacksonWill http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/JacksonPens Please feel free to start using these boards. I think they're pretty straightforward to use, however if you run into any problems using them, please let me know. I'm going to give it a whirl myself and try condensing down some of the military pension information I got from the National Archives for one of my ancestors and post it on the Military Pensions page. It's possible to set up similar pages for bible records and deeds. I'm willing to get those types of pages set up too if people think they will use them. Let me know what you think. Well, that wraps up my update. Happy holidays to all of you and good luck with your research! Dolores Lombardi Jackson County Coordinator for INGenWeb
