Hi, I've generally enjoyed and appreciated this list for its usefulness in genealogy research, but if it's unmoderated and(or) if inappropriate material is going to be distributed, I would like to be unsubscribed. Sorry for the brevity, but time is short, and I also don't want kids reading this kind of stuff on my computer. Thanks!

I just discovered info on my Grandmother. Her name was Maud Clemens and her husband was Samuel Clemens (not the Samuel Clemens LOL) I was wondering if anyone had info on Clemens in Ashtabula that may match up with mine. PS. I don't and have never thought of this e-mail from you as trash, no matter what anyone says. I find your info informative, entertaining and on your part most likely a lot of extra work. The person who said otherwise had probably never tried to run a Group site. Bekki

Hi Marcia. I apologized for sending the joke to this list. It is a very good list to learn more about genealogy and I hope you stay. I donate 3 hours of every day to further other's research in the field of genealogy. My days off it is closer to 6 hours. I don't ever charge for my time, and in fact drive 3 hours one way at least 6 times a year to do transcribing of cemeteries for other's gain. I work 12 hours a day, 3 to 4 days a week, and raise (alone) 3 children under the age of 8. Every once in a while something hits you as funny and you send it to your friends. I have said that I did not send it to this list on purpose, and I have apologized. I do not make a habit of sending out jokes. Please understand and stay. Everyone else, lets not talk about it anymore please? At least not on the list. Sincerely, Renee Waring

This is just a few of the "jokes" and other worthless trash I have received on your site. I thought this was a genealogical site - so far I have not received anything regarding genealogy! Please remove me from list - like in UNSUBSCRIBE ME NOW.

Dear Listers, I think we need to lighten up. If someone was offended, I'm sure Renee apologizes. For those of us who thought it was funny .. well, maybe we needed a joke today. Since we all seem to be into Genealogy, I can't help but wonder how many of our relatives worried about being "politically correct." Most of our families at some time in history, were the brunt of oppression or jokes. No, it wasn't nice, but it enabled them to develop strong minds, tough skin, and an ability to accept others for their differences. Now, I will get down from my soap box, and continue looking for those relatives who overcame so much. Thanks for the read, Susie Koehrsen

Hi Renee, It never ceases to amaze me of how many people in this world do not make mistakes!!! As soon as I read your joke , which by the way I have recieved before from other people, I knew these people would start replying in protest. I also believe children should be monitored on the computer anyway!!!

A fellow was ordered by his doctor to lose 75 lbs. due to very serious health risks. As he wondered how in the heck he would ever do it, he ran across an ad in the newspaper for a GUARANTEED WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM. "Guaranteed. Yeah right!" he thought to himself. But desperate, he calls them up and subscribes to the 3-day/10 pound weight loss program. The next day there's a knock at his door, and when he answers, there stands before him a voluptuous, athletic, 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but a pair of Nike running shoes and a sign round her neck. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you can have me." Without a second thought he takes off after her. A few miles later, huffing and puffing, he finally catches her and has his way with her. After they are through and she leaves, he thinks to himself, "I like the way this company does business!" The same girl shows up for the next two days and the same thing happens. On the fourth day, he weighs himself and is delighted to find he has lost 10 lbs. as promised. He calls the company and orders their 5-day/20 pound program. The next day there's a knock at the door and there stands the most stunning, beautiful, sexy woman he has ever seen in his life, wearing nothing but Reebok running shoes and a sign around her neck that reads, "If you catch me, you can have me." He's out the door after her like a shot. This girl is in excellent shape and it takes him a while to catch her, but when he does, it is worth every cramp and wheeze.  For the next four days, the same routine happens and much to his delight, on the fifth day he weighs himself and found he has lost another 20lbs. as promised. He decides to go for broke and calls the company to order the 7-day/50 pound program. "Are you sure?", asks the representative on the phone. "This is our most rigorous program." "Absolutely," he replies, "I haven't felt this good in years." The next day there's a knock at the door and when he opens it he finds Richard Simmons standing there wearing nothing but pink running shoes and a sign around his neck that reads, "If I catch you, I can have you."

I agree with you and there is always people out there who are too serious for a little laughter, too many rules make for boring! I really enjoyed the joke! I don't think it is really too explicit either, not anything worse than kids see on the TV. I told my kids the joke and they are always very well informed about all of life. I don't keep my kids in the dark Sandy ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Researching JEFFERS, NEWTON, BLANCHARD, RACEY, SCOTT, MANN, JEWELL, BEEMAN, FAULL, McCLOUD, CROW, HOLEMAN, TURNER, FULLER, KINNEY, LIAS, NORTON, OBERMIRE, PRITCHARD, FOWLER AND ATTEBERRY NY, IA, WI, OR, AZ, ENGLAND and IRELAND. and FERNANDEZ, SANCHEZ, LOPEZ, TRIGUERO, CASTRO From Spain>Hawaii>CA --- Soozenews@aol.com wrote: >Dear Listers, > >I think we need to lighten up.

Hi everyone. I had someone just ask me about the one name study that I have done on the Waring family. Here is the message that I sent her. If you are interest I would be happy to sent it to you as well. Sometimes when you have a hit a brick wall the best thing to do is collect everything that you can find and then put it together. We all like puzzles don't we? Hi Sue. You collect everything with the Young Family name in Clearfield. I will send a file that I designed for one name studies for you to use if you like. Some are using it in England. You would need to have 26 different files, one for each letter of the alphabet. If you have additional information, creat a link from that block to the nec. file. As an example, if you would have a Will for that person you would create a Link from the block "Will" to the other file that would contain that person's Will. If the cemetery is on line you can link that block to the web site that contains the cemetery information. When our cemetery information is up and going on line you will be able to link to a photo of the stone. Won't that be great? Remember, if you link to the web site the address will be put into that block. The block is to small to contain the address but if you place your curser in the previous block and tab to the next block you can write the cemetery name back in without destroying the link. You also have to be on line for the link to work. Does this all make sense to you? Sincerely, Renee Waring

The folks from Family Tree Maker, published on CD the ENTIRE 1850 Census for PA for about $50, if I remember correctly. You should be able to find her as a child, in the 1850 Census living with her parents and any brothers and sisters living at that time. meg SandysAlwaysSerchin' wrote: > Hello > I was wondering if Pennsylvania has a death index?

I hope that someone can help me; I have a very elusive ancestor whose date of death I am searching; all my efforts online have not produced results. The email for a researcher listed on the Dauphin County webpage is invalid and her website is no longer available. I am in desperate need of someone living in/near Dauphin County who would be willing to look for a death record between 1900-1910. Here is what I have found so far: Benjamin F. STONER (b. July 1848 PA) appears on 1900 census in Lykens Borough, Dauphin Co., PA with his wife Ella and three children, Frank, Izora and Merrill. In 1910, Ella is listed as a widow. I have tried to determine where he is buried without success as he doesn't seem to be buried in Dauphin County or Lancaster County (he was born in Lancaster). The Vital Stats page for PA indicates two options for ordering a death cert but I don't know his exact date of death. If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. I would be happy to reimburse for costs involved. Thank you Julia Conkey Ridgefield, WAGet more from the Web. FREE MSN Explorer download : http://explorer.msn.com

Hello I was wondering if Pennsylvania has a death index? My GG aunt was born in PA and I don't even know which County. She was born abt. 1842 or 43. Thanks so much.

I am a new subscriber to the Pa. genealogy list. I'm researching a Swedish immigrant family that arrived in Pa., in 1872 and resided in Tinicum until about 1879. They had three children born in Tinicum during those years. What would have been the attraction to immigrants to Tinicum during this time in history? I believe my ancestor was a black smith when he left Sweden. Were there any state census performed between 1872-79? Would there have been any Lutheran Churches in existence during those years, where I could attempt to obtain the family records? Thank you. Sharon in Mn.
