    3. The right side of the screen is where the newspaper page will show - the name will be hi-lighted in blue. To enlarge click on the font button - it goes from 10 % to way way big. I choose 25% to see where the name is, then 150% to read so I can copy and paste. Guess you just have to play around with it to see which things work for you Hope this helps !. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sandy Meeks" <susiem@cass.net> To: <nyniagar@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, April 04, 2010 1:20 PM Subject: Re: [NYNIAGAR] fulton history > Thank you so much.

I would like to have more info on her as I only have a birth year of 1862. They were both born in Sweden & I am trying to find where in Sweden they came from. I am hoping that it may state something on a cemetery record of where they were born or the names of their parents. I did find an obituary for Charles B. Johnson & that's how I found he was buried in Oakwood. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
