Chere, Try Staples. I have had things printed at my local Staples here in NH. Check with them as to what format they can work with. They have machines that can print 3' wide and as long as you might need be.

Chere~ We just did one for the first 6 generations of my husband's line, back to 1770, County Waterford Ireland. This was for the RAFFERTY reunion last weekend in Frostburg. This covered the surnames of MAHONEY, LYNCH, CHAMBERS, SCALLY, RAFFERTY, DENNISON/RARICK, MCALLISTER, etc. The first three surnames are the main trunk. We put two poster boards together so the 3rd generation - 6th generations could reach across. We used the FTM. We then had it framed. We did one a few years back, took it to KINKOs had it reduced to poster board size and then framed it. However, we found that the reduction which included pictures did make the print smaller. We did only the first 6 generations because all have expired. I feel that some people might have an issue with their stats being displayed.

I'm interested in finding out where in Cresaptown was Virginia Street in both 1841 and 1925. My G-G Grandfather-Daniel Hutson, my G Grandfather-John Bell Hutson, and my Grandmother Armenia Susan Hutson Avery owned property there. It is listed on the deeds as Lot No. 2, fronting on Virginia Street 82 1/2 feet and running back 165 feet. While visiting Cumberland a few weeks ago I looked in Cresaptown and consulted the post office, but the street name has changed. I ran out of time or would have checked old maps at the public library. Thanks. Nora Avery Florida

I'm laboriously transcribing a couple of deeds I got at the Allegany County Courthouse a few weeks ago. (By the way, your courthouse is a beautiful building and everyone inside was very kind, nice, and helpful.) The 1841 deed contains the name I'm researching (Daniel HUTSON) but also Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah, and William MCDANIEL, Edmund and Matilda HARDING nee McDaniel. Also Asa MCDANIEL. And, thrown in for good measure, there is a Robert LONGHORN (?). In the 1925 deed it mentions Alexander and Mary SHAW along with my HUTSONs. Is anyone on the list researching these three names? Nora Florida

Chere, I'm interested in just how you can do this. (22' x3'). I've never seen/heard of a pedigree chart that large. I'd love to see the finished product, as we are in the planning stages for a reunion next year.

Hello All, I've added another 20 pages to the book "History of Maryland" with lots of pictures and a few maps.

About U.S. World War II Draft Registration Cards, 1942 This database is an indexed collection of World War II U.S. draft cards from the Fourth Registration, the only registration currently available to the public (the other registrations are not available due to privacy laws). The Fourth Registration, often referred to as the "old man's registration", was conducted on 27 April 1942 and registered men who born on or between 28 April 1877 and 16 February 1897 - men who were between 45 and 64 years old - and who were not already in the military. The U.S. officially entered World War II on 8 December 1941 following an attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Just about a year before that, in October 1940, President Roosevelt had signed into law the first peacetime selective service draft in U.S. history, due to rising world conflicts. After the U.S. entered WWII a new selective service act required that all men between ages 18 and 65 register for the draft. Between November 1940 and October 1946, over 10 million American men were registered. This database is an indexed collection of the draft cards from the Fourth Registration, the only registration currently available to the public (the other registrations are not available due to privacy laws). The Fourth Registration, often referred to as the "old man's registration", was conducted on 27 April 1942 and registered men who born on or between 28 April 1877 and 16 February 1897 - men who were between 45 and 64 years old - and who were not already in the military. Information available on the draft cards includes: * Name of registrant * Age * Birth date * Birthplace * Residence * Employer information * Name and address of person who would always know the registrants whereabouts * Physical description of registrant (race, height, weight, eye and hair colors, complexion) Additional information such as mailing address (if different from residence address), serial number, order number, and board registration information may also be available. Which states are currently available in this database? This database currently contains draft cards for the following states: * Arkansas * California* * Connecticut * Delaware * Indiana * Maryland * Massachusetts * New Hampshire * New Jersey * New York* * Ohio* * Pennsylvania * Puerto Rico * Rhode Island * Vermont * Virginia * West Virginia *The collection of records for these states in this database is incomplete. Therefore, it is possible that an ancestor who fits the age requirement of this registration and is from one of these states, will not currently be found in this database. Records for additional states will be added to this database as Ancestry can acquire them. The original draft registration cards for the following states were destroyed several years ago and were never microfilmed before they were destroyed. Therefore, there will never be records for these states in this database. * Alabama * Florida * Georgia * Kentucky * Mississippi * North Carolina * South Carolina * Tennessee Locating Originals: The original draft cards are held by each state's National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) Regional Branch. All of these cards are also available on microfilm from the Family History Library (FHL) and/or NARA. How are the Cards Organized? The draft cards are arranged by state and are then in alphabetical order by surname, followed by the local draft board number. Note regarding the images for the states of DE, MD, PA, and WV: These four states were microfilmed at the National Archives in such a way that the back of one person’s draft card appears in the same image as the front of the next individual’s card. Thus, when viewing the scanned image of each person's original draft card you will see the correct front side of each person's draft card, but the back side of the previous person’s card. On occasion a person's race will be listed incorrectly in the database, since the information regarding each person's race was keyed from what was listed on the backside of the previous individual's card. Ancestry.com is aware of this issue, and is working to correct it. The draft cards for states other than Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia were microfilmed in a different manner and thus images of the original draft cards from those other states display correctly in the database.

Is it true that on ALL 1942 registration cards, the second page belongs to someone else? We have 2 draft reg cards for our great-uncle, James A.

Several months ago, someone on the list requested data on the children from the first marriage of Michael RAFFERTY. I can give you a contact who has the info you were seeking. I lost the name & E mail address. If the person is still on the list would you contact me either via the list or at maryln61@sbcglobal.net We attended a reunion in Frostburg this past weekend for the descendants of the Charles Patrick RAFFERTY branch and his brother Michael RAFFERTY branch. The wives of these men were sisters. Their mother was the sister of our ancestor John B. CHAMBERS. Mary Ellen Chambers

Ruth, I grew up in Greene Co and had Dorsey neighbors. Todd ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

just a word of caution: I did a search in the 1870 census for all of PA. for the surname DORSEY. There were NONE listed for Greene or Washington Counties. HOWEVER, when I keyed in to search each of those counties for that surname I got hits. So double check yourself when doing census searches. I don't know what happened, but the general search for the whole state should have picked up those hits. Ruth

I am researching two Welsh families who lived in Frostburg. LEWIS - John F. Lewis, born Oct. 31, 1800 in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, wife Ann Morgan Lewis, born 1801 in Wales. Came to America on the Barque Tiberias arriving on Sept. 10, 1838. John F. and Ann were accompanied by daughters Margaret, Hannah, Elizabeth, and Ann born in Wales and Mary, John H. and John T. Lewis, born in Frostburg. I am a descendant of John H. I am seeking information about the daughters and John T. that might lead me to information in Wales about John F. and Ann Morgan Lewis. JONES - Reese Jones, born 1812 in Carmarthenshire, Wales, and wife Mary Hopkins Jones, born 1818 in Wales. Came to US prior to 1843. Children Elizabeth, Ellen (Elinor), John L., Mary Ann and Caroline Jones- all born in PA. In 1850 they were in Perry Township of Armstrong County, PA. In 1870 they were in Frostburg, In 1880 they were in Unity Township of Westmoreland County, PA. Died in PA. I am descended from Ellen Jones (who married John H. Lewis from above). Does anyone have any information about Reese and his wife or their children other than Ellen and Mary Ann? Thank you for any help or suggestions you can give.

Yep sometimes I go for a name and it does not come up. I even have the first name AND the last. Guess what if I do the county it doesn't and statewide it does. So I always do it both ways. Because like you said it does the same thing both ways. And I will also say sometimes the name does not appear either way. But if I am looking on a page where I am searching relatives etc. right on that page I find the name. And it is not because it was unreadable or spelled different, it is right there so. Don't loose heart if you don't find it browse a couple of pages near relatives of who you are looking for.

You inquired yesterday about the following: According to St.Peter and Paul Catholic church in Cumberland Susan McKenzie was married there May 17, 1892. Would anyone know her spouse? My grandfather, William M. Hinkle married Suzanna McKenzie about 1895. She had been married before because she had a daughter Bertha who was born in 1893. Not sure if this is the Susan McKenzie you are referring to. If it is, all I have been able to find out is that Bertha's last name was Walker. Sure hope this helps, and if you find out the first name of Walker, I would love to know it. Bill Hinkle Grand Junction, Co
