I was digging through my old email files and came across something I'd evidently copied some time ago. I believe it may have been a post from a Rootsweb list, however, I don't know who sent it. I wanted to give the person who posted it credit, so I tried a search through the likely list archives, but, unfortunately, I couldn't find it. I hope it will be helpful to some of you.
