Morning All, Irene - Your posting about old photographs looks good to me. Less go with it. Once again thank you for offering to head this project. One thing, we have new people come on to the List all the time. I think it may be a good idea to post your massage every month or so. To All - I have quite a few picture of early people of Jessamine County, I have collected over the years. I am going to start sending them to Irene in a few days. I know you have old pictures in that trunk up in the attic. Pictures, that people on this List would kill for. Dig them out and send them to Irene. We will keep an up date list of the photos we have on file. They will be your's for the asking. A hard copy goes in the file at the Historical Society, and a digital copy will go on a CD. Bryce - We have a lot more out of state members that have not e-mail you. To All - This is a good way to find people that are researching the same families your self. So, please e-mail Bryce the name of the families that you are researching in Jessamine County. I see this type of information posted to the List all the time. But, that is a one shot thing. The list that Bryce is keeping can put you in contact intently. The information you give well only be shared with other on Bryce's List. It will not be posted anywhere. Please feel free to ask me to look up anything thing for you anytime. You don't haft to be a member of the Historical Society. We are here to collect history for and about Jessamine County.

Hello All, Again, I can only reinforce what Clyde tells you. The list will be a private thing ... I'll maintain and update it here where I live, and share it with the Historical Society. The only access to it will be through the Historical Society or through me. The only intention is so that anyone searching Fain, for instance, can get the names of any other folks researching Fain, along with how to contact them. Clyde, I have heard from a lot of folks -- not everyone by any means, but the numbers are growing. Since many of them are responding directly to me, you don't know yet just how many have signed on. You're right ... lots haven't, but lots have, too! So good to hear from so many of the fine folks I met at our first History Fest. Cousin Shelia may take on the whole Jones, Brown, Smith and Miller clans, and maybe even Nguyen and Wang if she doesn't behave -haha! (Shelia is a treasure, and I won't do that to her, not really. She's my favorite cousin sometimes, and we have both concocted elaborate e-mail scams to discombobulate one another - but those are stories for the next festival !!) Clyde, I'm ready for the old list at any time. Next week is my Fall break, so that will be a great time for me to organize the list. I can then update it at any time; so it will never be too late to join or add surnames. I heard Nicholasville on the news today, and am so sorry that it was about the accidental death of a young football player, in an accident during a parade. My heart; all our hearts, go out to all of you. The death of a young man or woman, so innocently, is no less heart-breaking than the deaths we all witnessed with such horror less than a month ago. Whatever the cause, whatever the motivation, whatever accident befalls our loved ones, each and every death is a personal, and community, and sometimes a national tragedy. I am sure that everyone on this list will join me in sending our prayers and thoughts of comfort and understanding to not only this young man's family, but to Nicholasville as a whole. I love this list. Related by blood or by heritage, I feel a closeness to each and every one of you. Bryce
