Dear List Members, If you are interested in knowing about other mailing list out there, one of the very best inventories of genealogical mailing lists is John Fuller’s Genealogy Resources on the Internet located at http://www.rootsweb.com/~jfuller/gen_mail.html If you ever need to unsubscribe from this list or any rootsweb list all you need to do is visit Password Central located at http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com/ Follow the instructions and you will received an e-mail of all lists you belong to and from it you can unsubscribe from the ones you want to. Always know that I will be more than happy to help you if you are having problems unsubscribing, you only need to ask. Please send this request to KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net not to the entire list. If you would like to visit the Archived messages of this list, go to http://archiver.rootsweb.com/ and type in the name of the list you would like to search and from there you can search by dates. If you are having problem and I do not answer you right away, know that I will. I like many of you work full time outside of my home. I am fortunate that I can check my e-mail any time I wish, but know that there are spaces of time I cannot. I always check my e-mail each and every evening and will respond to message that need me then and there. There are a few items I would like to suggest for the benefit of each of us. 1. When sending a posting to the list it would help if you would put the subject of your posting in the subject line. Doing this also might give you a better chance to attract the attention of someone who has the information you are looking for or the attention of someone who is searching for the information you are posting. Many members are on many many lists and when they see a subject line that reads "My Ancestors" they just delete it. 2. When posting a query regarding a surname it would help all of us if you would put your surname in CAPS. This way the members can easily pick out the surnames you are looking for. On the other hand when the entire message is in CAPS we feel that we are being yelled at. 3. Please remember to delete the tags and un-needed words when you re-send a message to the list with your answer. If you don't check this, your responses can become quite large and may cause problems with some of our member's servers. This member who might not be able to receive your message because of its size, just might be your long lost second cousin with all the answers you are looking for. 5. Remember to keep your Virus protection up to date and never open any attached file unless you are 100% sure what it is and even then you are taking a chance. 6. Now, the hardest thing is when one of our own, a fellow member becomes upset about a posting from one from one of us. It is so hard not to jump in and add our two cents. I want you to know how much I appreciate it when you just let these posting go by and delete them. Know that I am behind the scenes taking care of the problem. If you ever have a concern that I might have missed a message that needs addressed you are welcome to contact me during the day at Kathleen.burnett@era.com or in the evenings at KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net. 7. If your list has the gateway open, meaning the messages posted on the board also hit he list, know that every once in a while a SPAM message that is caught by the Board filter slips through the gateway and hits the list before it can be stopped. JUST DELETE IT. By responding the the list regarding he offending message, you just continue it on, and there is not one thing I can do about it at that point. Please remember, so that this list is better for each of us, the posting of virus warnings, test messages, chain letters, political announcements, current events, items for sale, personal messages, flames, etc., in other words Spam is NOT ALLOWED and will be grounds for removal. Consideration for exceptions, contact me at KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net I want to thank each of you for your continued support of me and your willingness to help make this list the success it is. It is your list and is here for your benefit. If you have suggestions or comments you would like in future reports, you only need to send them to me. Kathleen Burnett List Mom KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net

Shackelford was founded around 1847 by a group of Irish settlers who had come from Charleston, SC. It was originally known as Irishtown. St. Mary's was built on ground donated by one of the Langan family and was located north of the present town. I remember visiting relatives in Shackelford, one of them the local pastor, up until the 1960's.

Hello, I've noticed that some here are researching ancestors in, or around, the town of Miami. With my old hometown being not far from there, I feel compelled to mention that right across the Missouri there is also the town of Miami Station, Carroll County, MO. There is not much left in either town today, but both were once thriving. Leslie (Bridges) Kohler

To those who call the Marshall Public Library - you need to know about Kathy Peuster, their 'resident genealogy guru' who is most helpful and curtious.

It was right outside of Miami. Does that help? SKieren

Hi all: Does anyone know the township that Shackelford is in? Am looking for my Barton Family and it would help the searching process to know the township. Thanks. Bart Wise

Dear List Members, I just ran across an interesting Website, "Courthouse Experiences" http://www.bcpl.net/~dmg/courthouse.htm Not every county is listed, but the ones listed gave helpful information regarding the attitudes of those working in the courthouses. I might suggest that if you have had a positive or negative courthouse experience you add them to this site. I now know how to prepare myself for several courthouses I want to visit later this year.

No relation to Bob Braun. Braun as you may know is Brown in German so a very common name. But in our case Braun was my husband's stepfather's name. They came to the US in 1961 and no relations in US.

Are there any Saline County newspapers online? I am especially interested in Sweet Springs and Marshall. I have some family in the area and want to watch for news. Many thanks. Conni Mitchell Braun Columbus, Ohio

Traci, Thank you so much for sharing the links. I am looking for descendants of the slaves(2)owned by my Sellers, who gravitated to Missouri. I was interested in any connection by two of the names you listed on your sight. Tutt (My great uncle's middel name.) And Mc Clannahan, the name of my grandfather's first wife. Doubt there is a connection, but worth talking about. Sharron **Faith is the animating power of religious life.**

For those of you seeking African American Ancestors in Missouri -- please check and post to the message boards provided below It has been some time since I have been able to update additional records to my African Americans in Missouri website -- but I do continue to get many, many queries and attempt to assistance each person who contacts me via email. If you have slave related documents you would like to share; please feel free to email, fax or snail mail them to me. Over the past year -- my computer died, but now I have a new system. I was unable to retrieve some documents from my old system. I now have a new powerful system with CD/DVD burner and everything so I can retain and hold much more data and images safely. If you have sent me photos in the past year; and recollect what you sent; please send me an email reminder so I can check my index of goodies and make sure I have it. I've literally got a collection of stuff on cd rom from Missouri folks. I just need another 24 hours in each day to get it online!

ROBISON (Robinson), both born in Kentucky (maybe Pulaski/Bourbon County), about 1799 and 1805 respectively. They married about 1820. The spelling Robinson seemed to be utilized after arriving in Missouri. James died in New Boston, Macon, MO. Their migration [directly or indirectly] was through Indiana, Illinois and then to Macon County, Missouri. Their children and birth years were: Nancy (25 Apr 1824 - 27 Nov 1885; born Indiana; married Raish Hoffit SWINK, 14 Sep 1841, Pulaski, Kentucky; second husband, Daniel HULL, 22 Feb 1878); Mary A. (1821 or 1825, Indiana; married ? BURK, about 1840), Martha I (1826?, Missouri?, married ? HULL, about 1848), William (1828 ?, Missouri?; married Mary Elizabeth MASON 3 Aug 1854, Macon, MO), Susan (1834 Ill; married William RUNELS, 28 Nov 1850, Macon, MO), Elmyra (1834 Ill; married James CANTWELL, 26 Nov 1853, Macon, MO), Armilda (1840, Illinois; married Jesse HULL 9 Aug 1857, Macon, MO; second husband ?, married 1860), Amanda (1843,Mi; married Oliver LEDBETTER 19 Sep 1855, Macon, MO), Lucinda C or G (1844, Missouri; married Charles Henry MASON; lived and are buried in Goldsberry/Ethel, Macon County MO; at the Helton Cemetery; these are my gggrandparents); Benjamin F. (1847, Missouri; married Mary ?, about 1867), and Margaret (1849, Missouri; stayed with parents). Is anyone researching this line? I'd sure love to hear from you. I am specifically looking for the parents of James Robison; the location in Kentucky where they were born; the family of Martha ? Robison and descendants of their children. Thanks so much.
