Dear Friends, Since receiving an inordinate number of private emails from mainly list member-voyeurs and list hit 'n runners questioning *why* I am sending "SPAM" to the list, and if I ever sent SPAM before, I' clarify. I don't email spam...ever. Mail that arrives in your SPAM folder is not always bad, it can be from someone not listed in your address book. Also, I don't know David A.H.Stroebel, we've not exchanged emails, nor have I read any of his questions or contributions to our lists. If you decided to research your ancestors in these Civil War rosters, you might be overwhelmed by 195 choices. http://dmna.ny.gov/historic/reghist/civil/rosters/rostersinfantry.htm And, as one email asked, there are no direct links to individual rosters. I chose the 69th New York regiment since it was Irish American and could be useful to members on both NY-Irish and NY-NY lists. I searched for surnames from your posts. This was a seven hour act of love. My intention was to inspire both lists to untangle some of these rosters. It was great to hear of the success stories. FYI Pat Connors was kind enough to post this link to members of the Irish Brigade who are buried at Calvary Cemetery in Queens NY> http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nyqueen2/cemeteries/IrishBrigade2.htm When you read something that helps or inspires you, please speak out.

I do not find anything wrong with the postings of 69th Regiment rosters - it is interesting historical information (to me, anyway). Since it is not against Rootsweb rules to make these posts, I see nothing wrong with them, and MY opinion counts here. Our list has been very quiet lately, and it is good to see some activity here again, ASIDE from any arguing, complaining, and making rude posts. The person who made the original complaint has removed himself from this group voluntarily, so this subject should now be closed. Play nice with each other, folks! Or else...

Thanks for all you do, Barb. You have been and continue to be a knowledgeable resource, a professional researcher and a willing partner. You share openly and willingly. You are appreciated.
