I've received a couple of e-mails and a long-distance phone calling telling me that a v*rus has come through the MOMARIES list. This is not true, but, of course, those affected are a bit upset and not willing to listen <smile>. Please read the following information from Rootsweb. A v*rus CANNOT be gotten through the list. That does not mean that someone who is also s*bscribed to the list cannot send you a v*rus. If you have any questions, contact me PRIVATELY. We WILL NOT disucss this matter on the list. Thank you. Shirley Scott, ListAdmin shirleyscott@juno.com http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/announce.html#virus Virus warnings RootsWeb's mailing lists are filtered and attachments are not allowed. A virus that is distributed as an attachment will not reach you through a RootsWeb mailing list. A recent virus, and several imitations of it, may result in your receiving an e-mail (or a greeting card) with a virus attached, that appears to come from RootsWeb or from an address you are familiar with. Some virus will send a message to all the unread messages in the infected person's mailbox folders, with the virus attached. It may include the original message followed by instructions to look at the attachment. Another will use addresses found in the infected person's address book. They send messages using a forged address (for instance, using RootsWeb or the infected person in the return address). The subject line and message may indicate it is in response to a message you sent, making it even more credible. While it may appear to come from RootsWeb, that is only an illusion of the virus -- our address and the subject line is a forgery. What can you do? Protect yourself by never opening an attachment from someone you do not know, or that look suspicious. If an unexpected attachment comes from someone you do know, write to confirm they sent the attachment prior to opening it. If you have an e-mail from RootsWeb, and there is an attachment of any kind, don't open it. If you clicked on an attachment and received a message that the file was corrupted, it likely means your computer has been infected by the virus. Most importantly, use a virus protection program. Know what viruses are out there so you will recognize one when if you get it. There are sites that will help you, including those shown below. http://housecall.antivirus.com/pc_housecall/ http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/ http://www.stanford.edu/group/partners/hoaxes.shtml http://kumite.com/myths/ http://www.mcafee.com/centers/anti-virus/default2.asp http://www.europe.f-secure.com/v-descs/newapt.htm Remember, if you do not open the attachment, you substantially reduce the chances of becoming infected with a virus. Delete it. Then empty the trash bin to make sure it is gone. If you are using an e-mail program that stores attachments elsewhere on your computer, such as Eudora, find it there and delete it too. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

You don't have a Ranson/Rance/Ransom Copeland in your files? He is buried in Dent Co., MO , fought in the Civil War as a Union officer, and is the father of the Solomon Copeland I am looking for. Kathy Copeland

County seat: Vienna 65582. Maries is probably a corruption of the French "marias" meaning "marsh, swamp." The Maries River, like the upper reaches of the Osage River was once said to be call "Le Maries dy Cygnes" or "Marsh of Swans." It has also been suggested that the Big and Little Maries rivers were named for two French girls and that the name is the plural of Marie. Courthouse burned on 6 November 1868. Townships: Boone, Jackson, Jefferson, Miller, Dry Creek, Spring Creek, Johnson.

http://searches1.rootsweb.com/usgenweb/archives/mo/crawford/bios/m2000006.tx t Biographical Sketch of John Moss, Crawford County, Missouri >From "History of Franklin, Jefferson, Washington, Crawford and Gasconade Counties", Biographical Appendix, Goodspeed Publishing Company, 1888. ********************************************************************** John Moss, son of David and Rachel Moss, nee Boone, was born in Tenn- essee in 1836, and is the fourth of six children in the family of his parents. His father was a Kentuckian by birth, as was also the mother, the latter being a descendant of Daniel Boone, the celebrated hunter. John remained in his native State until the age of sixteen, receiving the benefits of more than an average education. In 1852 he removed to Missouri and settled in Maries County, where he followed agricultural pursuits until his marriage in 1855, to Miss Martha, daughter of Henry Barnhart. Five children blessed this union, three of whom are living: Thomas H., Joseph W. and Arvazene. In 1869 Mr. Moss came to Crawford County, settling upon a farm of 120 acres, where he applied himself assiduously and successfully to agricultural pursuits. In 1874 he was deprived of his wife by death, her burial occurring at Leasburg, Craw- ford County. In 1875 Mr. Moss was united in marriage with Barbara Barnhart, a sister of his first wife. In 1882 he purchased his present place near Cuba, and here has since resided, owning a well improved, comfortable homestead under good cultivation. Public affairs have for him little attraction. He belongs to the A. O. U. W., and both himself and wife are active members and liberal supporters of the Methodist Church. Politically, he is a Democrat, and now has the contract for carrying the United States mail from Cuba Junction to the postoffice in Cuba.

Can someone fill in who these Feeler¹s are? --------------------------------------------- http://searches1.rootsweb.com/usgenweb/archives/in/washington/bios/feeler.tx t >From "History of North Washington" Published 1904 Transcribed by: Candy Grubb (candyg@theofficenet.com) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- SIMON FEELER Simon Feeler resides about five miles south from Fruitland on a good estate, which his skill and industry have made a beautiful home place and which is now producing abundant returns in varied crops and fruits. Simon Feeler was born in Washington county, Indiana, on October 21, 1834, the son of Simon and Deborah (Dealey) Feeler, natives of Virginia and South Carolina, respectively. The father's father was Mikel Feeler, a native of France and an officer in the War of 1812. Our subject passed his youthful days on a farm and sought wisdom in the district schools until fifteen, then accompanied the balance of the family to Maries county, Missouri. In 1859 he took a train load of provisions to Pike's Peak and returned to Kansas. In 1861 he came thence across the plains with a train of eighteen wagons to Oregon, being troubled much with the Indians en route, and on the Owhyee river the little band of whites fought several hundreds of the savages for many weary hours but fortune so favored them that not one of their number perished. They journeyed on to Polk county and then our subject returned to the mines of eastern Oregon; in 1865 he located at Gray's Harbor, Washington, being one of the first settlers in that region. He assisted to construct the first wagon road in the Satsop river to Olympia. Where Aberdeen now stands was a favorite hunting ground for elk, bear and deer. In 1874 he went with teams through Nevada and four years later journeyed to Shasta county, California, whence in 1879, he returned to Lake count, Oregon. In 1890 he came to his cousins' home and since that date Mr. Feeler has been one of the enterprising and substantial citizens of Stevens county. On September 12, 1878, Mr. Feeler married Mrs. Martha J. McKinney, daughter of John and Amanda (Perry) McElrath, natives of South Carolina and Tennessee, respectively. Mrs. Feeler was born in Hunt county, Texas, on October 16, 1852, and seven years later came with her parents in an ox train across the plains. They settled in San Louis Obispo county, where she received her education and she remarks that in the public schools most of the scholars were Mexicans. Mrs. Feeler was first married to Joseph McKinney, who was killed in the state of Sonora, Mexico. To this union two children were born, Octavia, the wife of Rex Buck, of Cheney, and George McKinney, who died in Mexico in 1892. Her parents came to Washington and her father was drowned at Lyons Ferry on the Snake in 1879; her mother is now the wife of E. Ingle, living near Milton, Oregon. To Mr. Feeler and his first wife, four children have been born: James W. and Samuel S., of Milan, Washington; Maggie, wife of T.E. Bernard; and Mary M., wife of Frank Duke, both of Lake View, Oregon. Mr. Feeler was married the first time in Lyon county, Kansas, on March 6, 1859, to Sarah M. King, who died at Walla Walla in 1873.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Beulah, in January of this year. - George (Homer) Seaton was born in Maries County, 30 miles south of Jefferson City near the little town of Meta. Homer's father, mother and himself moved to Henry County four miles north of Clinton on a small farm when he was four years old. On this small farm is where he spent his childhood, and then on into manhood. At the age of 26 he married Beulah Irene Griffith on November 18, 1939. To this union one son was born, Ray Homer Seaton, on November 29, 1944. Homer spent his life farming and other jobs, and taking care of his mother and father, and his wife's mother and father. Homer started work at the Reliance Coal Company October 15, 1944. He worked at the coal mine until the mine closed down in 1958. He then went to work at International Harvester at Clinton as a mechanic. He worked there for three years. He then went to work at the Clinton Food Service Locker Plant. He worked there until June 9, 1982. All this time he still farmed some. In 1950 Homer and his wife, Beulah, and son, Ray, moved to another farm eight miles northwest of Clinton, where he lived the rest of his adult life. In his later years he enjoyed many things, such as working in the garden and the yard, and working in his shop and attending to his many flowers. He found great joy and happiness in visiting friends and family and taking care of his dogs and cats. He was a member of the Garland Baptist Church. Homer was preceded in death by his parents, James and Sarah Seaton; wife, Beulah Irene Seaton; five sisters, Lida, Clara, Dica, Ruth and Iva; five brothers, Lark, Fred Albert, James and Everett Seaton. He is survived by his son, Ray Homer Seaton of Clinton; daughter-in-law, Judy Seaton, also of Clinton; two grandchildren, Ronda Seaton of Columbia, and Robbie Seaton of Clinton, and numerous nieces and nephews and a host of friends. Rev. Don Eaton officiated at the funeral services on May 9, at the Sickman & Dunning Chapel. Special music selections were "Beyond The Sunset" and "How Great Thou Art". Honorary pallbearers were Raymond Seaton, Bill Beebe and Oral George. Pallbearers were David Huenefeldt, Bill Huenefeldt, Rawleigh Crooks, Eugene West, Orvel West and Joe Seaton for burial in the Englewood Cemetery.
