GABRIELE, No apology is necessary, but thank you anyway. I'm an old school teacher, and I know that I make errors in typing--often too many of them. The caps have helped me to clean up my mistakes. And please let me assure you that I am not angry at anyone about anything. Actually, I feel quite fortunate, and I enjoy genealogy tremendously; Inow have the opportunity to resolve old mysteries in my family.

If the list is not opposed to this, what did you teach Lou, and how does it relate to NYC Genealogy?
