My name is Betsy Hale I live in Orlando, Florida I'm 37 years old. I have been interested in Genealogy since I was a young child but only started doing it online a few months ago. In that time, I've found about 8 cousins, and they are all wrapped up in my KISSING COUSINS families, so that's a big accomplishment. The reason I created this list is because I see so many people who are researching so many names where they get hits all the time from lists, and I've yet to get one. All the Cousin's I've found have been from my own searching. I realized one day the implication of having so many Cousins married in my family tree and how that would reduce the number of descendants. That's when I decided that there was a need for this sort of thing. I hope you all will agree. The names I am researching can be found if you go to RootsWeb's Surname search and type in the name Derochbrune. I am only one of two people who is researching this name at present and the other is a cousin I found on there. My username on the RSL is davictor. click on my name (incase you've never been there, this is a great resource - check it out!) and then click on the link that says "to see the surames of this individual" you can then see all the names I'm currently working on. If you don't have a Surname list at the RootsWeb surname lists, I highly advise you to get one. http://rsl.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/rslsql.cgi I'd love to know what all your researching experiences are, and how you've fared. this list is going to be quite open for discussion so please feel free to share what your experiences have been. Looking forward to getting to know you all, Betsy Hale Listower KISSINGCOUSINS-L@rootsweb Proud RootsWeb contributor (if it weren't for RootsWeb, I'd have found none at all).

Hello?
I don't remember where I got this, but it is a great site! http://www.helplist.org Are you trying to research ancestors who lived hundreds, or even thousands, of miles away from your current residence? You might want to look into the Genealogy Helplist. Say you live in Las Vegas, and you want to learn about your New Jersey relatives. Helplist volunteers are willing to look up information in every state, as well as a number of countries around the world. Just click on the index for that location and send a query to a volunteer. Or, if you have some spare time, volunteer for Helplist and assist someone else in his or her family research. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
