I second the validity of the statements below. I have studied surname origins for quite a few years and find it informative, fun and that it adds much to the general study of genealogy. There are many books on the subject - but an essential one is by Elsdon C.Smith - "American Surnames". Although this book was published many years ago is still very valuable. Stated in different ways, Mr. Smith's book supports the position stated below and give very good examples to illustrate the assertions. "American Surnames" is a great book for the genealogy researcher. It is the kind of book to take along on trips - trains, planes, busses and the like. Mr. Smith's research goes very deep. If you wish to get a flavor of the times of long ago and how your ancestors came to be called what they were - then find a copy of "American Surnames" and keep it at your side.

Hello Everyone: For those of you who have a deep interest in how, when and where your Surnames were formed I would like to direct you to 5 new pages we have recently added to our web site. Many researchers have for years believed that all ancestors with the same Surname were at some point related. That is simply not true. When you get back to proving your pre 1500s ancestors you will discover that there are in fact many Surnames that have passed through many families that have no relationship whatsoever. The 5 pages mentioned also contain information on many Forenames and their creation and some of the pages are large so relax and take your time. THE ORIGIN OF THE SURNAME PART 1 THE ORIGIN OF THE SURNAME PART 2 THE ORIGIN OF THE FORENAME FORENAMES OF WOMEN AND THEIR SIGNIFICANCE FORENAMES OF MEN AND THEIR SIGNIFICANCE .......................................................................... There is much information here that should be of interest to all. Go to our web site at: http://www.linkline.com/personal/xymox/ Once there enter the link titled "ORIGIN OF SURNAMES & FORENAMES" this will take you to the index for the 5 pages. For those of you who are AOL members you may have trouble connecting to many pages that may come up with a message such as "Page Does Not Exist" and you can cure that by using your browser feature of Copy and Paste the URL to your browser and then enter from there. All pages contained within our web pages are free for viewing and study by all interested researchers. The very best to you all. Enjoy. Harold Oliver Director America's First Families

Congratulations to The Boone Society Reunion Committee. You made our trip to the St. Louis area a wonderful experience. We enjoyed seeing many of The Boone related sites, as well as getting to see St. Charles and some of the St. Louis attractions. We enjoyed the VIP reception and tour of Lindenwood University's Boone Campus, which includes The Boone Home and Boonefield Village. We also had the opportunity to visit The Judgement Tree Park and The Boone Monument (the cemetery). Thanks again to Cousin Connie Holmes Larson and the Committee for a job WELL done. Thanks, too, to our National President, Rochelle Evans Cochran, the other officers and the Board of Directors for their part in the success of this 5 plus day event. Also, I wish to compliment Ken Kamper on the most recent issue of The Daniel Boone and Frontier Families Newsletter. It was one of the best. It is always great to learn from your research. Gratefully, Ivan D. Lancaster of Trafalgar Descendant of Edward 'Ned' Boone

VACATION TIME is here! Please read and save these instructions! AND have a wonderful time whatever you do and wherever you go! TIA, Pat Mount List Admin Previously published in RootsWeb Review: 16 June 2004, Vol. 7, No. 24. RootsWeb Mailing Lists -- Gone Fishing? "Summertime and the livin' is easy" is how the familiar song from "Porgy and Bess" goes. For RootsWeb users in the Northern Hemisphere, summer is nearly here and that often brings with it vacations (holidays), long weekend fishing trips, beach house visits or trips to the cabin in the mountains. All of which means time away from genealogical research, time away from your computer and your e-mail. What should you do when you are going to be away temporarily from your RootsWeb mailing lists? Depending upon the length of time you will be away, the capacity of your mailbox, and the activity level of the lists to which you subscribe; you may choose either to remain subscribed to the lists and catch up on your mail when you return or unsubscribe (especially from the busiest high- volume lists) and re-subscribe when you get home. RootsWeb list software does not have a temporary "NO-MAIL" setting. However, unsubscribing and re-subscribing is easy and will accomplish the purpose. If you choose to unsubscribe from all, or just some, RootsWeb mailing lists during your vacation, first check Password Central to verify to which lists you are subscribed. http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com/ Once you obtain a list of your subscribed lists, address a new e-mail message to the list "request" addresses for the lists from which you wish to unsub. The "request" address is used to send your command or instructions that can either unsubscribe or subscribe you from a list. The format for addressing a message to the request address is: LISTNAME-L-request@rootsweb.com --if you are subscribed in mail mode (receiving every individual message list members send to the list) or LISTNAME-D-request@rootsweb.com --if you are subscribed in digest mode (receiving list messages lumped together in digest format). Replace the generic word LISTNAME above with the actual name of the list. For instance, if you wish to unsubscribe from the SMITH surname list and you are subscribed in mail mode, send your request to: SMITH-L-request@rootsweb.com or SMITH-D-request@rootsweb.com to unsubscribe from the digests. Be sure to put the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the subject and message body of your e-mail and don't include any other text. If you wish to unsubscribe from more than one list at the same time, you can show multiple "request" addresses in the SEND TO box of your e-mail with the addresses separated by a comma just as you would if you were sending an e-mail to several individuals at one time. Keep a record of the mailing list names for the lists from which you have unsubbed so that you can easily address a new e-mail to the same list request addresses when you return with the word SUBSCRIBE in the subject and message body to get back on the lists you temporarily left. Note: Never send a REPLY e-mail to subscribe to, or unsubscribe from, a list -- always send a NEW e-mail. Upon your return from summer fun, you can browse the archives of your mailing lists to catch up on the messages you missed. Start here: http://archiver.rootsweb.com/ Type in the name of the list you wish to browse and then select the month and year to view an outline of the messages you wish to read. Next, click to view any or all individual messages. So, if the fish are biting this summer or the seashore looks inviting, leave the laptop at home and don't worry about the "the big one" getting away because you are not home to view responses to your genealogical research queries. You can catch up with mailing list messages when you return.
