Sincerely, Margaret Cheney Elyria, OH In Weygandt's Tombstone book on Page 41, "Two Ridge Cemetery, Island Creek Township, Jefferson County, Ohio is the following: LANCE, Peter 1822 - Age 47 Christopher 1824 - Age 75 I have copied this as it appears in the book - I assume that the age shown at death should be subtracted from the date and thus Christopher above would have been born ca. 1849. These are the only LANCE names in this book. Helen Weals - weals@ridgecrest.ca.us

Thank you Helen. I do know that Christopher and his son Peter are both buried at Two Ridge Cemetery. Quite a few years ago, members of his family replaced the deteriorating headstones with new ones with basically the same information as the old as well as the final resting places for their respective wives which were elsewhere in Ohio. It is an ongoing search..... Thanks again, Margaret

Bobbi, I also at times have problems with mail getting out. I sometimes re-send it, only later find out it was received the first time! It sometimes comes back as undeliverable mail. The person I sent it to had already gotten the first one, even thought it was sent back to me as "undeliverable". It is confusing to say the least! No problem here, I just will delete the duplicates. Barbara

Bobbie, All that I know is that William Ager came over from County Tyrone, Ireland in 1811. He first settled in Virginia, where he married Elizabeth McFadden and soon after they moved to Montgomery County, Ohio later to clark County Ohio where William Ager died in 1831. Later on in the line the family moved to Jefferson County, Ohio. I am still searching the Ireland link and will keep you in mind. Thanks for your help. Becky

If/when you receive a response, if not posted with Jefferson County, Ohio, I would be interested in getting the cd also. As you are, so am I, an out of stater. I grew up in Indiana and currently living in Tennessee. My grandfather came from Steubenville in Jefferson County Ohio. I would appreciate if you could get me the information. Thanks, Becky

I got your message three times. I have the same problem during peak hours..everything slows down...suspect it has nothing to do with the computer...it may just be the excessive internet traffic.

Good Afternoon, I'm also having trouble with slow e-mails. One message took 8 days to be received while later messages to the same address were received within minutes. Also interesting that others are receiving duplicate e-mails. I receive up to 5 copies of the same message. But I guess duplicate copies are better than none at all.

Bobbie, Yes, we have been receiving duplicates. I received three of the one below and 5 of the previous one. There are many reasons why that could be happening. In general, when I have those problems I just reboot the computer, and usually I actually shut it down and restart it as opposed to just restarting. Sadly, this often solves some of the problems. (I say sadly because this solution reflects poor software design.) You could be running low on disk space for your browser... etc. Regarding mail, I would suggest that for the time being you save your mail before sending it, and then after pressing send just be patient. If the sending message goes away, you can always verify that it was sent by checking your sent mail folder -- most e-mail software log them by default, so yours probably are as well. If you don't see it there, you can bring up the saved one and try sending again. Karen ------------ Bobbie Reihsen wrote: > > Hi, Lately, my browser is very slow.
