An announcement appeared in the RootsWeb Review this week and has been posted in various other places, but just in case anyone missed it I'm copying it here. We expect to be back up and running in about 24 hours. The downtime will effect all of RootsWeb including mailing lists, GenConnect boards, and all Web pages. Starting at 8 a.m. PST Friday, February 23, RootsWeb will begin a planned temporary downtime for maintenance of its servers and hosting process. It will limit this downtime as much as possible, and will return with increased performance and reliability for future growth. In the meantime, please take time to visit RootsWeb.com's sister sites -- Ancestry.com and FamilyHistory.com -- where you will find additional tools such as message boards, communities, and databases to help you in the search for your ancestors. Thank you for your patience. --The RootsWeb Staff

I am researching my father's family and have just learned that my great grandmother's maiden name was Alice MEYERS. She was born in California, married Walter MEYER, b. in Germany. Their son (my grandfather), Alfred A. MEYER, was born in San Joaquin Co., California on 1-13-1885 and died in San Joaquin Co., California on 7-4-1923. They may have had more children that we are unaware of. I believe Walter MEYER is buried at the East Union Cemetery in Manteca, CA but I do not know where Alice MEYERS MEYER is buried. If you know of a California connection to Alice MEYERS family, please contact me. Thank you. Debbie
