Subject:Re: MEREDITH, Charles C. in Pa (+ other given names in Pa) Date:4/10/2004 1:14:37 PM Central Daylight Time From:mmbellamy1@verizon.net Reply To:mmbellamy1@verizon.net + MEREDITH-L@rootsweb.com To:Bluchp56@aol.com Dear Jerry, Thank you for your patience. I have unearthed a file of papers in which there is information that may interest other Meredith seekers and which I also hope to make use of. However, I find that I have no way to convert these files as they were written originally in 1988, in Word Perfect 5.1. The WP people seem totally uninterested--DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW HOW TO make a conversion to Word documents? I am currently running Word Xp Home edition. I'll also look for other help sources. And I'll be back in touch. Many thanks.
