I believe my Ggrandfather died in the Buffalo area between 1910-1920. Who do I go about verifying if this is true? Troy Connor Project Manager Flintco, Inc. Northwest Arkansas Division

I have a picture of about 22 altarboys taken at St. Mary's Church on Broadway about 1881 - 1882. I do not have a name listing for the picture, my cousins and I were able to pick out our Grandfather, Joseph STABEL, from the picture based on others we have of him as a young man. If anybody is interested in a copy, contact me off list and I'll be happy to email it to you. It is about 200KB. Joe Dessel

Someone on the list asked about the closing of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Allentown. There is an article on the church in todays Buffalo Evening News on line about the closing and last service. Betty

Of these, I heartily recommend Snopes. Worth bookmarking and checking every time you get scaremail that cites no source, such as a website or specific newspaper article. --- sgtnysp@aol.com wrote: > Try these sites to check out Urban Legends > > www.truthorfiction.com > www.urbanlegends.com > www.snopes.com > www.xnet.com/~warinner > www.legends.org.za/arthur/welcome.html > www.chainletters.org > www.hoaxkill.com > www.vmyths.com > www.av.ibm.com > http//:hoaxbusters.ciac.org > www.museumofhoaxes.com > http//:quackwatch.com > > I haven't been on all these recently; so some might have > closed down. > > Kevin > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Dixie Endsley <dendsley@wic.net> > To: NYERIE-L@rootsweb.com > Sent: Sat, 23 Jul 2005 20:06:44 -0600 > Subject: [NYERIE] Save NARA > > > I got this message from a friend.

Hello, I'm new to the list. Is there anyone researching Vincent KABAHKA found in the 1890 city directory in Buffalo, NY? He was a shoemaker. I haven't been able to find him in other census records. I know he had at least one son, George KABAHKA born c1836; married to Grace CHANDLER. They are on the 1920 census, Buffalo, Erie County. It states George's parents were born in Germany. Any help or information would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you very much, Bev in Calif.

The other thing you can do is to use any search engine and type in a few of the key words from the message, along with the word <hoax>. Try to use key words which are less common if there's a person's name or a place mentioned in the message,you can search the full name, i quotes (putting anything in quotes causes the search engine to search for the entire phrase, not both words individually) Hilary Henkin Atlanta, Georgia
