And it IS stopped for a time, but someone always revives it. I have a not-so-usual surname. Year ago, and knowing it was a scam, I sent for one (cost me $20 then) and sure enough, it had all my same-name relatives, addresses and phone numbers. I didn't feel badly, because I'd lost track of a couple, and I knew approximately what I was going to get. Anyone new there? Nope, but hope does spring eternal, and all that. If one is honest himself, I find, it is always a bit of a shock to find that others are NOT! So don't feel badly. They'd lose money on printing costs if the scammers used more populous names... Gotta stick to we unusually named! You did the list a service, anyway---you've warned others this is a scam. Mine was probably in the late 70s....but it's revived a time or two since. Ruth

Jeanne, There are no people with the names of Tubbs nor Farwell (Farewell) listed. Sorry. There are two Freeman's. They are: Freeman, Isaac J. - b. 6 Oct. 1840 d. 7 Sept. 1917 Freeman, Nancy C. - b. 5 Apr 1841 d. 30 Oct. 1920 They are buried in Evergreen Cemetery; (one mile southeast of Berlin, MD). None of these names are listed in Cemetery Records of Somerset County, Maryland. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Wow I bought one many years ago because the surname America was said have been covered in the America book. It was a joke I was embarrassed that I had fallen for this.
