Newsgroup Announcement: For those of you who are familiar with the USENET binary newsgroups, there is a new one for genealogy researchers. The name of the newsgroup is: alt.binaries.e-book.genealogy Shortly, there will be a corresponding "discussion" group for the new newsgroup: alt.binaries.e-book.genealogy.d NEWSGROUP PURPOSE: The purpose of the new newsgroup (alt.binaries.e-book.genealogy) is to provide a place to share scanned genealogy books, genealogy books from CD and other printed genealogical materials. This is where you may find and share those old, out of print or never published materials and unidentified photos, which people have stuck in their closets. :-) This newsgroup will be of greatest interest to those who are already familiar with USENET and newsgroups, specifically binary newsgroups. If you don't know about newsgroups, and the huge amount of genealogical info that flows freely across USENET each day, then please ask one of your computer literate friends to explain how to access newsgroups (sometimes relanguaged to the term "discussion groups"). List Admin: If I have accidentally sent this to a list where I'm no longer a member, will you please post it to the group for me?? Note: This is NOT spam. I'm making an announcement about a free newsgroup. As anyone familiar w/ USENET knows, there is no profit in this at all. My only interest is -- I want more people to subscribe, because more group members will mean more information is being shared (some might help with my brickwalls). :-)
Good morning all, I was wondering if there is anyone on this list researching in Craven Co.??? I'm trying to follow-up on GAMBLE, GAMMILL which are variations of the surname.... CAMPBELL, and BALANTINE, which is a variant of the surname BELINDEN, BELLENDEN, VALENTINE. I found recorded documents that list these variants, in the same county together, pre-1800. In all my years of research, this is the very first time I've found both those names, recorded as living in the same area. I'm hoping that I can find a researcher that's also looking into one, or both, of these names. I'm trying to breakthru a brickwall. Looking forward to sharing data, Lisa Grimes KCKS@gorge.net
