I am very interested. Thank you. I worked on the History all weekend and trying to fit the Swede puzzle together. I will be going down to Swedeborg at the end of the month. I will gladly accept all contributions. Please note your connection so I can give you credit in my book. Thanks for taking the time to answer and copy the information. Pass the word around what I am doing so I can include as many families as possible.

Since you have chosen to make your "statement" to the list, then I am forced to respond to the list. As the ListAdministrator it is my responsibility to set up rules for the list. When you join you receive a welcome letter with these rules. The message you posted has nothing to do with the sharing of your family history. While the information you forwarded IS important to many who do not research sites before "blindly" joining, it IS available in a myriad of places, including the Rootsweb Review which is received by anyone who is a member of a Rootsweb list, it is NOT necessary to post it to each individual list. There is no reason to use precious resources to repeat the same information over and over. While I respect the fact that you are entitled to your opinion. It should have been expressed off the list, as it states in your welcome letter. I have received many complaints about your original post but only one complaint because I asked that the discussion not continue from the list - you. ATTENTION: this discussion WILL NOT CONTINUE on this list. There are other venues available to continue this discussion including privately. Any further posts will be considered a violation of list rules and members will be put in "moderate" mode so that I can view their posts before forwarding them on to the list. This list runs so smoothly that it saddens me when people can follow a few simple rules.

Shirley, The letter I sent to the list was Genealogy related, and yes it was a warning so that this "family discovery.com" will not get another person to pay for something that can be found FREE on line. I feel that your doing a disservice to this list by asking us not to critique genealogy websites. I for one appreciated being warned about a scam, or being told about a great website. We are all here for the same purpose to share information on genealogy. Even Rootsweb.com has added the following information to their news letter that is distributed to those that are on the list. Thank you Debbie Walters "HANCE, BILYEU, ALEXANDER, ALLISON, ORR, CHOAT AND ANDERSON"

Posted on: Pulaski Co MO Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Mo/Pulaski/10751 Surname: POUNDS ------------------------- I am looking for some information on my gggrandfather and his family. I have a census report showing that the family was in residence in Pulaski Co, MO in 1850. The census was District No. 72B Esi?g and the census shows Newman Pounds, age 26, Elizabeth Pounds age 18,and William O Pounds, age 11/12. Would there be birth records for 1849 which would have been the birth year for William O. Pounds. Also any marriage information on Newman and Elizabeth. I think her maiden name was Stroud. Any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you Pat Becker

We are all hardworking volunteers to have genealogy information free for researchers. I have found links to our Macoupin civil war rosters, censuses, which we spent many hours of volunteer time now to have unknowing researchers pay a membership to click on a link to view our work. Macoupin County ILGenWeb volunteers have put over 1400 pages of free information and continuing to work to get more pages up. If any person finds our complete work in their membership, please notify me. Please pass this information onto any list.
