    3. I think booting Wilfred, as one suggested, is a bit extreme just for an honest mistake. Wilfred has done more work for others in the realm of genealogy then most on the list could ever know. He is a member of our Genesee Area Genealogists. He answers many of the genealogy requests from those out of state that are mailed to GAG. In celebration of our county's 200th birthday, our organization was to find the founding families of the county. Wilfred was part of the committee that worked on this project for over 2 years, which is note books full of families, ancestors & descendants, which have been given to the county history dept. for others to use. He has contributed so much of his personal time to the genealogical history of our area, removing him from the list would be a slap in our county's face. If you ever get to Genesee Co, stop and look through these note books. The information was displayed at our county's birthday party along with a great map of the US that showed all the travel routes of how these founding families migrated to other states, to where existing families are today. The project was a wonderful contribution to genealogy as well as our county's history. -- Cindy Amrhein Town of Alabama Historian Genesee Co., NY ********************** Historian's Page - Alabama, NY http://www2.pcom.net/cinjod/historian/ Experience the town of Alabama in Genesee County, New York.
