Nah, the lines have just been quiet because the magpie has been ill and off line. Usually, whenever, Tim or I THINK that Angela needs a little stirring up, one of us takes care of the matter. I guess w / me out of it for the pat 6 wks. almost, Tim dropped the ball and didn't get anything going. I am wondering, and our illustrious list manager can make the decision on this because sometimes people get carried away. However, it seems like it has been quite a while, unless it was recently, since we had a simple roll call. I don't mean 400 words of description for each Perry Co line you are researching. Just, first and last names, wives, and time frame would keep it simple. How about it, Angela, should we see if anyone out there knows anything about my people? For example, PETTY, Joseph, wife Elizabeth ?, son Jacob, b. 1801 in NJ. Line through Josiah, s/o of Jacob and Millie BARNES PETTY, Reading Tp. ELDER, Minnesota, wife of Wm H. Petty, d/o of Ashbury ELDER I am told, don't have documentation yet; need picture ID of Minnesota MURDOCK, Arthur, came from N. Ireland ca. 1820 to Chester Co., PA, to OH after 1825 sometime; 2nd wife Hannah HANTHORN, line through s/o Arthur and first wife who died in IRELAND, George and Sarah Angelina MAJOR, both born. ca. 1810, both died leaving possibly two sons, Archibald MAJOR MURDOCK and perhaps James Arthur MURDOCK; need burial and death info for parents and fate of James Arthur If we limit each query to 3-4 names and put the names in caps at the top it is easy to see if you need to read this one or that one. What do you think? There might be a Petty researcher lurking around the corner somewhere who has not heard from me! I'm glad to be coming back after almost taking the big trip w/ adverse reaction to anesthetic. I am weak, but the mouth still goes and the typing is coming back. So look out list, there will be no more quiet. Angela, did my article about the Petty Researchers meeting in July get posted on here? Love to all, MaRGE,
