Hello. My name is Cheryl BARNES SALVI. I live in Haverhill, Massachusetts. My connection to KCMO is my father. He was born there in 1930. I read all the posts hoping that someone writes something about one of my relatives. I appreciate it when people put the surnames in all caps - it makes it easier to skim over the posts. The names I am researching are: Ralph BARNES Ivella STEWART FOULK TIDWELL BARNES Margaret BLANTON YOUNG ANDERSON BARNES NANNY BUZAN WONSETLER I really appreciate all the births and deaths notices and other articles that you submit, John. Thank you. Cheryl In a message dated 1/4/2009 10:32:56 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, JohnOBrien@kc.rr.com writes: Good morning, You are one of 135 members on the Kansas City Mailing List. As we begin a new year, I thought it would be interesting to know a little something about us members, and maybe even help each other, so I'm requesting that you respond to this note with the following: Your location - city and state .......... or just state How you are connected to Kansas City, MO or Kansas City, KS What you hope to gain by being a member of the KC Mailing List Your family name - first, first & last, or none. =================================================== Perhaps someone on the List will be able to provide you with information. This will be more probably if you include dates and names in your response. For example, saying "my grandfather lived in KC" will not get much of a response but saying "my grandfather, John O'Brien, lived in Kansas City in the 1920s" might produce a result. It's up to you how specific you want to be. There is, of course, no requirement that you participate. However, simply responding: "I live in California and lived in Kansas City, KS in the 1950s" would be acceptable. Thank you for your consideration.

My dad's oldest sister married into a Barnes family from the Kansas City, Kansas (Armourdale). I don't know much about his relations. My uncle's name (he passed away a few years back) was William Barnes. He was a doctor of osteopathic medicine. Any connection with your Barnes family? -- JoLynne On 1/6/09 4:17 PM, "CherylS828@aol.com" <CherylS828@aol.com> wrote: > Hello. > My name is Cheryl BARNES SALVI. I live in Haverhill, Massachusetts.
