Your check was received today, I picked it up at the post office and immediately sent your two copies to you. You should be receiving them in a few days. You did receive the last two I had, do hope all who ordered enjoy them and Thanks again for your orders!

I have a quick question to the ones selling the books. I was wondering if you received my check yet? I sent it Sunday night. I hope I am one of the fortunate ones to receive this cookbook.

Dear Santa, I have been a good girl this year! I have worked ever so hard on tracking early families of Stone Co, Mo. and I have tried to share all my list and papers like a good little girl. Here is my all the things I want for Xmas, Santa!! These are families that I need your help with! Just tell your elves to look in the cemeteries, the courthouses, the marriage records, probate records and anywhere else they can think of! It shouldn't take them tooooo long! Just think of all the time they would save coz they don't have to make anything on my list!!! Hinds, Rizzy (family) Harper, John Hendricks family Surber family Keech family Napier family Wiloby family Clark family McNeely family Haskins family Stevens family Stevenson family Massy family Stout family Austin family Brannam family Well Santa, there's lots more, but I wouldn't want to overwork your elves so that all the other children don't get their presents! I will have your favorite cookies and a big tall glass of milk waiting for you! P.S. Tell Mrs Santa hello for me! Your little geneology girl, Mindvoice@msn.com http://members.xoom.com/Robid/Page_1.htm http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~biddle/settlers.htm

1870 Cass: 1-1 Wilhelms, Mary 40 AL Elizabeth 20 AL Job 13 AL AMY 10 AL Apparently poor Mary has lost her husband, and I can seem to locate who her children married or what happened to Mary!

Hello Everyone! Is anyone researching the Pritchard Line? I'm having an awful time trying to sort them out and would appreciate any help! There is a Pritchard family history in Stone Co Vol 1 but only a few of the family members are listed. I need help with those appearing on the 1870 Cass Census. Thanks! Robin http://members.xoom.com/Robid/Page_1.htm http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~biddle/settlers.htm

Thank You Lois!!! I did get my check in the mail Sunday night. I just hope I am a lucky one to get one to see the look on Grammys face when she sees it.

December 3 was the potluck.

Dear whomever: I would like to see your photos - for sure! I'd also like to hear any info you have regarding the 1870's times on the Nickerson White farms. These were the days of the Wilderness Road, which became Hiway 13. I'm doing a video on the WR and any info and photos will be important.

Lois: I'll certainly try to be there. I am determined that Joe Philibert and the Wilderness Road MUST be in the anniversary book. I'll try to get Vicki to come, too. Thanks for the invite.

June, I have some information on the Hembree family that might help. I just recently married into the family in May (I married the grandson of Clinton Blaine Hembree and Lucille Warren). I have done some research and am always looking for more. Let me know if you are interested in some information. I am new to the list and am glad to see someone that I might have a connection with. I am also researching the Anderson family that has been in MO since the 1840's and several families from Texas County, MO. Tara Anderson Killman rtkillman@aol.com
