Carol I think you'll find that this is turning into a kind of roll call of the surnames that we are researching in Nebraska, which can be very helpful to other researchers. Although I pretty much know the genealogy of my families in Nebraska, I sent my information to the list to help with the migration research. Since then, I have been contacted by someone privately about one of my surnames, so you see, it has been a help to me, and to someone else. I check each message for the surnames to see if I connect to someone else, and might have some help for them. Connie

Carol, In response to your recent email about the migration trails, I for one, do not consider it "litter." In fact in less than 24 hours I made a contact that I don't believe I would have made otherwise. It was based on a surname and migration trail that was sent out in one of the responses to the migration request. This connection is even more valuable as it deals with the ancestral trail of a female ancestor that I have had no other information than her name. As of yesterday, that brick wall has been removed. Not only do I have her parents and siblings, but I have a "fellow researcher" to team up with on this family line. This is an ancestor of an 1810 marriage into my main line that I desired to establish the maternal side of my tree. IMHO the migration pattern request played a significant part in the roles that our ancestors played in the development of Nebraska. Also, all of us have the option to use the "delete" key and the "unsubscribe" preference when we find this list is not one of our top reading sources for the day. Just my thoughts, Karen Lehn

Does my email sight have to be littered with all this migration stuff, I normally enjoy reading the posting of other NE researchers but I do not find this real beneficial to the search of our ancestors. If someone wanted the inf. they should have emailed it directly to him. My opinion for whats its worth. Carol

Robert doesn't work w/Ne Historical Society. He does most of his work down at the W. Dale Clark Library here in Omaha. I haven't seen him for awhile, but will try to get in touch with him and tell him folks are looking for him. Karen

Here's mine. At least as far as I know them. Some of their migration paths through the US are still up for debate, especially for those pesky Wilson's.
