Ann and All, The name is Vardry McBee. From years of working in Lincoln County original records, I am familiar with his handwriting. Also, I seem to recall an article about him that Derick Hartshorn compiled. Maybe Derick will remind us of when/where that was printed.

Dear List Subscribers, Many folks have written me lately noting some form of service interruption. 1. Messages sent have not been received by the server, or 2. No mail received for several days. The problem has been discovered and fixed. 1. If you want to resend any past messages, check first in the respective archives to see if the message has been sent. 2. If you wish you read what has been received by the respective list's server, also see the archives. The lists (and archives) I administer are as follows: [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/NCBURKE [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/NCTRYON [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/NCLINCOL [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/CATAWBA-WEST/ [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/WHITE-PA-NC [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/HARTSHORN [email protected] - http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/NHCAMHER/ --Derick -------------------------------------------------------------------- [WHILE THIS PERTAINS TO THE LIST OWNERS, I THINK YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND HOW COMPLICATED THIS THING IS.] -------------------------------------------------------------------- For those administrators with lists that are on LISTS5, my thanks for bearing with us while we have been repatriating mailing lists, and been through the involved process of rebuilding digests. The disk failure and replacement did a bit of nasty damage to the digests that has resulted in some major recovery work. Over the next while, we will be putting previously sent mail through the digests. This is to ensure that the searchable archives at http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/ are complete, though we will have to recycle mail back to 29 October. After that we will be turning mail back on and the queued mail from the past days will be delivered to the server and lists. All that mail that you have been missing and wanting will be arriving, hopefully in a steady continuous stream. In short, things may look a little unusual for those who keep a close eye on their administrative email. I have just covered in more detail some of the specifics that administrator should look for in a mail to LISTOWNERS. [info] Mechanics of rebuilding digests http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/listowners/2004-11/1100449752 A reminder that you will be seeing email messages for people wanting to subscribe when they are subscribed, and also the people asking "Is this list operational?" which weren't delivered when the list wasn't operational. May I ask list administrators to not further broadcast this message to the mailing lists, it is for your information and provided to you on that basis. RootsWeb wishes to undertake the general information of informing users, and I really am unable to deal with all the mail from people who then feel that a live email address of a RootsWeb staffer is fair game for their email. For general questions of list administrators please utilise the mailing list LISTOWNERS or some of the other list administrator support lists available. For general help at RootsWeb please visit the HelpDesk http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/ and the list administrator help pages at http://helpdesk.rootsweb.com/listadmins/ Thanks for your assistance.

Several years ago, the Drum-Wilkinson Clan based in Catawba County authorized the publishing and distribution of a 2-volume family history entitled, "The Drum-Wilkinson Families." A supplement to that publication has recently been published which contains additional information as well as corrections to the 2-volume set. Should anyone be interested in either of these genealogy resources, please contact me direct for more information. Betty
