Hi Tim. Nice to hear from you. Many persons on that particular mailing list for a Northern Co. in NY State, were aghast also. They emailed me privately off list. The administrator chastised me publicly through the mailing list, that listers complained and they were unsubscribing. You are the list adm. that we all need and love! Genealogists LOVE to talk and we're totally obsessed with Heritage-ours or anyone elses. I've been a Professional Genealogist for 31 years and rarely ever have had to defend myself for sharing. Thank you for emailing me. I appreciate that. The Vt. Families books are fascinating as the families are very detailed and many to NY State.
