I am being provided with a list of Cherokee Freedmen on the the Final Rolls. So far I have almost 300 names. If you are interested in Cherokee research, and would like a copy of the list, just drop me a e-mail. I will gladly forward it to you. Happy researching. Stephanie K.

I'm sure your sites are very informative, but I still cannot access them. I'm using windows 98, so I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to. Any suggestions? Louvenia Solar

Hello, I am trying to find a way to have some research done in Caddo Parish, Shreveport and I was hoping that someone could give me some advice or recommend someone to do the work for me. I need to have several look ups at the library, including newspaper obits. And am in need of some death certificate/index look ups. Of course, I am willing to pay someone or exchange research, as I live in Maryland and have no plans to be able to make it to Louisiana. I also am interested in research in DeSoto Parish, Mansfield. The family names I am searching for are: Foster CARTER, MUNDAY/MUNDY, GUY, SCALES, & GIVHAN Thanks! -- Victor Crawford, Jr. [email protected] 8812 Sixty-second Avenue Berwyn Hts., MD 20740
Hi Everyone: Is there anyone out there researching the BEAUREGARD surname, specifically Toutant or Tousant. He eventually migrated to Wilson County, Texas. A point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Stephanie K. Martin-Quiatte

Good morning, I am working with a young lady on the syrname ETIENNE. She has done quite a bit of work, and has afreed to allow us to post her family history on the African American page. We made contact through Afrigeneas, and she has received a lot of compliments for her work. The comment below is my favorite. "Your story is truly inspiring, especially for those of us who are surrounded by brick walls six feet thick. But on the other hand, you probably know that the state of Louisiana is one of the best states in which to search because there are so many great records." I just thought you guys might like to hear this. We are doing a good job. Stephanie

I want to remind everybody on the list in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma, about the upcoming VIRGINIA RESEARCH SEMINAR at Angelina College, in Lufkin, Texas, on Saturday, October 16, 1999. Texas is a big state and and we sometimes forget that Lufkin is closer to Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma than it is to cities in the Texas Panhandle. Vendors are welcome. Call ahead for space. Speaker will be the well known Mary McCampbell Bell of Arlington, Virginia. Price is $45.00 which includes continental breakfast, and break snacks, and a salad and sandwich buffett lunch in the college cafeteria. She is an excellent nationally known speaker and it cost to get her to East Texas from Virginia. She will present four one hour and 15 minutes sessions on Migrations out of early Virginia to other regions and the use of Virginia records including deeds and patents, probate records and court order books and tax records with very informative and detailed handouts. Program begins at 9:00 a.m. In my other genealogy life, I teach genealogy and organize these special genealogy events at Angelina College in Lufkin, Texas, a two year community college 100 miles or a two hour drive north up Hwy 59 from Houston, Texas. While a lot of colleges are teaching continuing education/hobby courses in genealogy now, Angelina College is the only college in Texas that we know about and probably the only one between Alabama and Utah that is bringing in special speakers for fall and spring seminars and holding a three day summer conference. The dates for next summer's conference are Thurs-Sat, July 27-29. Theme is expected to be Researching the mid-1800's, the Civil War Era, if I can get enough speakers on that topic and maybe some re-enactors together. If you would like to be on the mailing list please let us know. If we do not have a good turnouts for these programs, college could decide not to sponsor them anymore. Dates for the spring seminar are Friday, March 31, and Saturday, April 1, 1999. Speaker will be Rhonda R. McClure of Florida with a variety of topics. Some speakers will speak on Friday night and some will only speak on Saturday. Mrs. McClure will speak on Friday night; Mrs Bell does not. Mrs. McClure's Friday night topics will be Organization and migrations. Saturday topics will be one session on New England research and three sessions on using computers and the internet. For more information Contact: Community Services, Angelina College, P. O Box 1768, Lufkin, Texas, 75902-1768 1-409-633-5206. The name of the lady who does registration is Susan. e-mail [email protected] fax is 1-409-639-3863 Seats are still available. Walk-ins are welcome on a space available basis. You can register the morning of the conference, but it is best to call ahead so that you will have a lunch reservation. Late Registration is from 8-8:45 am with the program beginning at 9 am. with a one hour break for lunch, 12-1. If you are interested in speaking at a future conference, send a resume and a list of topics with summaries on which you speak. Speakers are by inviation. Let us hear from you if you have suggestions for future speakers or topics.
