Craig, I appreciate all the work that Marcia is doing to help the rest of us out. Marcia puts wonderfully explicit subject headers so people who are not interested can just delete them if those emails are not applicable to that person's research. No harm done for them. And as for the people for whom this material is relevant, I am sure they are quite excited when devouring all the historical information about their ancestors. I do read Marcia's postings, in hopes that a recognizable family surname leaps off the page, and perhaps another door to my genealogical past will be opened. Marcia, THANK YOU for generously sharing your time and your money (those books weren't GIVEN to you). It's people like you who make genealogy a warm, inviting and informative hobby. Incidentally...did I ever tell you that I have a line of "PAYNE" ancestors? It's true!

Hi All, If you haven't been to the Worcester County archives page recently ....please visit....I have been linking pages of the "History of Worcester and Its People - volume 4" which has bios and photos. Thank you to Kathy Baker - the.bakers@flashnet.it - for scanning this volume she owns. http://www.rootsweb.com/~maworces/wo-gen.htm - archives page Also note a new feature - Quick Jumps - right on the top of the main page---will take you to all your favorite Worcester GenWeb pages! On the topic of too mail emails.....don't forget that you can always subscribe to the digest list [unsub the regular list first tho!] . The digest will have many emails contained in ONLY ONE email...thus cutting down on the number of emails you would have to delete. Digest are set to go out every 18 hours or when the amount of messages reach 25K ---which ever comes first. Also understand that when the list is really inactive...the list server may not send a digest for longer than 18 hours and the digest may only contain one message. So long story short------sub to the digest list if you want LESS email. If you chose to totally unsub from the Worcester list...you don't have to miss anything. Just go to the list archives at http://archiver.rootsweb.com/ They will appear by the month and you can view them all. OR go to the list archive search engine if you want to search for a topic, town, surname, etc. http://searches2.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl] The lists are archived only every couple of weeks so the very latest posts will NOT be in the archives.

I have been reading your Denny family history with interest. Since you seem to have so much knowledge of them, could you tell me if the surname DENNIE is tied in somehow? I have DENNIE's in my research that are from this area and am trying to find out more about them. Thanks for any info!

Hi Marcia, Just wanted to thank you for submitting all the information on Worcester County residents and sharing it will all of us I read every post just in case one of my "brick walls" should show up! Keep up the good work and thanks again. Susan

While my lines, as I understand them to date, do not tie in to the Denny history, I nonetheless enjoyed reading the information and appreciate the effort you took to make it available to the list! Mesa

If you care to read all 14 typed pages, you would find out that the Denny family was a very important part of Leicester and Worcester and the State of Massachusetts. Their families are very large, so that involves alot of other families marrying into the Dennys. I find that sharing all this information will not only help the folks on our list, but everyone else who searches Rootsweb in our area of the world, can enjoy the extensive genealogical information I have just given and will continue. It may be a headache to delete all of this, but I assure you, it was no headache to transcribe 16 pages and then type 14. I enjoy helping my fellow listers and anyone else who visits our Rootsweb Archives. It will be there for them when they're ready to do the same as us. Marcia Payne
