Thanks for the information, Peggy...I have several families from Ellis County (Ballard and Shipley), so I'll send queries to the column. How nice they have e-mail! BTW,while I have your attention...8-)...the Comanche County webpage is in need of new research material, so I'd like to ask you all to see if there is some information you could share with others... Do you have access to county records, cemetery rolls, even old high school yearbook classes? If any of you live in the county, could you volunteer to do lookups? I think a photo page would be a good addition...featuring early Comanche County families, their homes, around town, or school classes. A new section on Biographical Sketches of early county residents would be an excellent addition to the page. We could start a list of favorite research sites...send 4 or 5 of the places you look first for something. How about a collaborative project to put the 1900 federal census for Comanche County on the page? Do any of you have ideas on how to increase the research sources available to visitors? To have scanned photos, bios, favorite sites, and any other early county material added to the webpage, please forward it to: TimeTrvlrO@aol.com Thank you, LaRae Halsey-Brooks County Coordinator Comanche County GenWeb Page http://www.rootsweb.com/~okcomanc/okgen.htm In a message dated 9/3/99 9:34:16 AM Pacific Daylight Time, MawPeggy@ectisp.net writes: << The Waxahachie Light has a genealogy column called "Missing Links" where people can send queries.
