    2. I would like help looking for Inis Simons burial place. She died around 1903 and the family lived around Maben, Ms. She was a Miers previously, maybe buried around them.

    1. MORANT/MATTHEWS
    2. PATRICIA MOHORN
    3. Trying to find information about my great grandfather and his family from Vicksburg, Mississippi. The late Rev. John J. Morant (former pastor at Bethel A.M.E. church) died March 1961. Trying to find information on my grandmother Mary J. H. Morant and her daughter Bethel Christa Morant. Bethel married my grandfather Cleveland Matthews. I have no information on Cleveland except that he was an insurance collector and he was born in Bolivar County, apx 1902. Bethel was a school teacher. I think that John Morant was related to Asberry Ben Morant (born 14 Feb 1878) and James Jefferson Morant (born 14 Dec 1892). Rev. Morant was the author of Mississippi Minister, published in 1958. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    1. U.S. Census Spreadsheet Available
    2. Gary .
    3. I have created a spreadsheet which I am using to record the mountain of census data that I have accumulated on paper over the years. I like having electronic copies of records for ease of manipulation, transport and backup. The spreadsheet would also be very useful for those of you who take a laptop to your local FHC for data entry. I have posted offers to e-mail a FREE copy to anyone interested on several genealogy lists and the response has been overwhelming. I have mailed out over 600 copies in the past week. That tells me that there are a lot of people like me who have piles of unruly census data and no good way of organizing it. The spreadsheet has a separate page for each census year from 1790-1920, as well as Soundex pages for 1880-1920...great for tracking a single family through the years. The spreadsheet I created is bare except for the formatting on each page to match the particular census year data fields. No actual census data is included. I used Microsoft Excel 97 to create the spreadsheet and I kept it simple so it should be compatible with most any recent spreadsheet software out there. One lesson learned so far. Excel 97 uses multiple worksheets, like pages of a book. Previous versions of Excel did not support multiple worksheets. You will need a spreadsheet program as least as recent as Excel 97. I have tried opening my spreadsheet with my copy of MS Works 5 and it does not work. I don't know about Works 6. I have received reports that Quattro Pro 8 works great. I've sent out hundreds of copies so far and those who have used the spreadsheet have been unanimous in their favorable comments. I have been helped countless times on various lists by people generous with their time and expertise. I'm happy to pay back those kindnesses in this small way. The response has been so big that I created a web site to allow anyone who wants a copy to download it with a click of the mouse. There is also a page featuring some leasons learned. You will also find a discussion forum for census related topics and questions about the spreadsheet. The URL of the spreadsheet page is http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~minder/ Gary Minder sdkhaki@hotmail.com _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
