Hello friends, Well the past few days have certainly been interesting ones! As many of you may know by now, the server that housed a number of the RootsWeb mailing lists crashed. Many long, hard hours were put in by some very dedicated people, in an attempt to restore it's function. Sadly, in the end, all lists housed on that server had to be moved to another one. In the course of all that has taken place, some lists were affected. You may notice that some lists that you subscribe to, no longer have the prepend (i. e. list name), in the subject line. Some may have lost the taglines found at the bottom. And unfortunately, some who had mailed either sub or unsub requests to the affected lists, did not get the request met. One other problem that has arisen, was that a few people who were subbed, were lost from the list. Things are getting back to normal, but I am still working on getting my lists edited and the custom settings redone. Another thing you might notice and watch for, is whether your replies go back to the sender, or back to the list. Some of these functions likewise were affected. Not all of my lists were affected by the crash, however I am going to send this to all my lists, for one specific reason. Even though you might not be on one of my lists affected by the crash, you might have been subbed to others that were. And a number of my lists were housed on that server. I highly recommend that you check to see which mailing lists you are currently subscribed to, to make sure you are still listed as a subscriber. You can do that by going to http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com This would also be a good time to do a quick roll call and make sure you are getting through. Make sure your replies go back to the list. If when you hit reply and look at who it is going to, if it does not have the mailing list in the addy, you need to hit "reply to all." For some of you, this will be the first message from me, as I had just adopted several more lists right before the crash. Now, does anybody have any aspirin????? <BG> Deah The List Mom with only a slight headache!

Posted on: Martin Co. In Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/Martin/80 Surname: ------------------------- Hi! I have noticed that you are doing research on the Terrys. I was wondering if you happen to have a Henry Thomas Terry (born ca 1886), son of William John Terry and Jennifer Hill, in your family tree? Henry Thomas was in Ontario at the time of his marriage to Gertrude Evelyn Virgin in 1906. We are not too sure if he was born in Ontario, Canada. It is said that the TERRYs came from the United States, from around West Virginia. Please, if you have any information, could you please contact me. Thank you and I hope to hear from you very soon.
