Doug, Hi! Your adopted sister (Mozelle) wants to know how GenealogyBank compares to Ancestry.com. I have been a subscriber to Ancestry for several years but am becoming disillusioned with it.Genealogy is much less costly. Tell me what you think. Mozelle On Apr 9, 2010, at 9:17 AM, Doug.

I checked this site out on a trial basis. I did not find anything of interest to my personal search. There were a couple of very interesting articles however. One was a write up about Brooks Storey being recaptured from a prison break along with a sketch of him. Mr. Storey was an outlaw of some fame. My Grandpa Gilbert once rode out on a posse to help capture him after he robbed the train depot at Durant. The other article was about the shooting outside the Attala County Courthouse between Ratliff and Jackson. It is an article with information from the trial. It includes a sketch of Ratliff and Jackson as well as the courthouse showing which door each witness was standing at. Interesting stuff if you like history or had one of the men below who testified in your family line. It mentions: Dr. J. R. Roby Chas. Lister Edgar Sanders Will Jamison J. C. Clara Frank Herington H. B. Casey J.J. Furr W. J. Sanders W. A. Stingley J. H. Redding Will Davell George McMullen Thoms. Sand J. R. George Ed Stingley W. P. Sanders Dr. F. P. Smythe T. V. Jones Kuk Yendall L.L. Blackston Ernest allen R. L. Gunter D. F. Love (sheriff) V. H. Wallace There was also a complete book of correspondence dealing with soldiers captured and in prisoner of war camps during the Civil War. That was also interesting reading although I have not finished it as yet. Anyway, I hope this gives you a better idea of what sort of thing can be found on the site.
