Dear Ms. Lininger, My apologizes to both you and the List. Am new to computer mailing lists & genealogy via computer. I have been overwhelmed with the generosity of the Missouri List members in responding to my queries. Haven't had time to respond to most of them, am still dealing with flu. Somehow I thought all of the responses I was getting on this subject WERE sent to the list. Have made a file concerning above, with the most pertinent info as it concerns me specifically. Would be happy to put it on the list, but it would be an attachment since I deleted the email each time the email entry was put in the "computer sort" file. Next week sometime will print out the file, then type it to email. Currently have 2 undeleted emails. Will send them back thru the List by "reply". Please let me know personally and I'll download my file to you immediately, along with further updates as I receive them. Hope this helps. It is the least I can do after the good responses I've received abt subject computer sort.
