Pat-- I will be in Casey County the 17th of this month and plan to bring my WFT records with me on disk. All the lines are KY related; however, not all are Casey County. Would you prefer that I strip out those which do not have direct connection with Casey County? I know that storage space is always a concern in this kind of data base. Regards, Annette Smiley P.S. I enjoy the chit-chat, also. It tends to be much more genteel that what I have observed on some other genealogy lists. -----Original Message----- From: Pat Brooks <grmabrooks@kih.net> To: KYCASEY-L@rootsweb.com <KYCASEY-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Wednesday, May 05, 1999 8:40 AM Subject: [KYCASEY-L] Casey County Fair to have Genealogy >Hello All: >Just a note for your information.
