Any history of Isaac Law of Franklin Co. Pennsylvania 1800 census. Believed to have had son John Law (1801-1875) who lived in Frederick Co. Virginia and Somerset, Perry Co. Ohio. Thanks. Jim Windsor

Hi, 56 hours of overtime will gross $1008.00 I have 22 of that so far and more this week. The guys that built my slow computer will build me a super highspeed good one for $11??.00. I am on my way. Your message to Tony about the gedcom disk went out on the law subscribe line so I got it too. Maybe you should send it to [email protected] Try this long web site. Type carefully and check what you typed: www.census.gov/ftp/pub/genealogy/www/freqnames.html it tells you how many people have a name in the united states - like Law or even Jesse Law Then try www.ancestry.com it is supposed to be a good genealogy resource. Herb just called me to get my prodigy address. I am very slowly getting him interested. I'll keep reminding you about the flowers. Get some film too so you can take pictures. I'll come the Saturday before if I can, but I imagine we will be working. I am going to take off two hours one Saturday if I can for a choir rehersal with an orchestra and then not work on Sunday Dec. 21 so I can sing with the orchestra at church or I will work 1/2 of that day. I did every minute of overtime last year and missed out on a lot of more important things. If they say I can't get off, I guess I will just miss out on important things again. .. Love, Nancy

TONY: Just read your mesage to Joyce Law and her husband Ted. We have been working on the Isaac Law for a couple of years. She can not be sure she is related to us until we find postive birth records on the Isaac that is her ancestor. I am sure we are but maybe not. I knew she got on this web net. stuff. Also Doris Young is on here now and Fran Roberts is on now. Tony I have a GedCom disk in the mail for you. It is up to date as far as my records go. I printed off all those messages you sent to me. I already have some of that data in my computer but there must be another thousand names for me to put in this winter. I sure thank you for all the help you have been to me. Hope I have not been too disappointing to you. If I were about 12 years old I might be able to learn more. You should get the GedCom disk in a few days. [email protected]

Joyce, I show Isaac Law as being born in 1812, the third son of William Joel Law and Mary Polly Burgin. I do not have anything on his spouse or children so this is all new ground for my research. Merril Law ([email protected]) has been copied on our correspondence and I am sure that he will be contacting you. Since he is in southern Indiana, there is a chance that he may be able to work more closely with you to trace out this branch of the tree. Tony Wood [email protected]

I apologize for the length of this post, but I thought it might be simpler to forward rather than rewriting to send to the lists.

Our LAWS-L is now being archived by Rootsweb and is also under password protection. The note I am forwarding explains how to access these archived files. As you post to the list, you might keep in mind the importance of using relevant subject lines since that will make it easier to locate notes of interest in the archives. >Date: Sat, 8 Nov 1997 06:55:00 -0800 (PST) >X-From_: [email protected] Sat Nov 8 06:54:58 1997 >Old-Date: Sat, 8 Nov 1997 11:01:47 GMT >To: [email protected] >From: Marc Nozell <[email protected]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >CC: Marc Nozell <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: LAWS-L Mailing List Web Archive info >X-URL: http://lists.rootsweb.com/~archiver/ >X-Diagnostic: Unprocessed > >Hello, > >You are getting this message because you are the listowner of the >LAWS-L mailing list and have requested that your list be >archived on the web.
