Hi gang First off... To all those who wished me and my computer well.... Thank you.... In case you hadn't heard... I got hit with a virus around the first of August. The computer is back from the shop.... but my email is pretty much trashed.... I lost most of my saved messages etc.... So I'm not ignoring anyone...really!!! Altogether I got about 15 different messages that contained the virus... all in a 24 hour time period... What's sad is I've just today I received 3 more virus attachments... So this is my warning to all my good friends... the virus that got me is still in circulation Please 1. update your virus protector... mine was pass the free update period and I didn't want to spend extra money.... ya-dah-ya-dah.... 2. don't open attachments....even from buddies until you check with them.... because it is your buddies who will send you the virus... at one point my outbox had 1300 messages (plus virus) in it.... I crashed my computer that nite to prevent any going out from me... (I hope and pray no one got a virus from me....) 3. back-up regularly.... I got caught with all my databases unbacked up... Yep!!! Haven't found anything missing yet but will I know when I do....... Darilee

Andi if you find this person, could you direct them toward me? Let them now I have information but not much on the Kent Lumber Mill. And the logging camp of Barneston. This was owned by Lysander Smith and his son Ziba Smith until 1924 when they took down the town and sold the land to Seattle and is now the Seattle water Shed.

I like what he is doing, and I think you will, too, when you read this article about Bill's endeavor. I'm hoping Bill will come to Snohomish and capture some of this history before it is too late, also. Bill likes to interview, and I like the way he is doing it - that's why I hope he will have time for Snohomish documentary.

Not only is she concerned with a Real Story, but she presents Real Data that Genealogists as well as non-genealogists can pursue if they wish. This article is about a lady who the thick and thin of Life, overcame the obstacles; discovered the relentless endeavor to find her birth father and used the very clues she could to attain her goal. Her diligence paid off, but she was to come to know her real father who had the same diligence and made the same effort - the combination of which brought them together, happily, after 44 yrears. It is a real tear jerker and if you like drama, read THIS ONE. I think you will have the same reaction as I did. * * * 30 * * * Carroll in Snohomish THEY WANT TO BE FOUND &

Am trying to find information and/or locate an obituary or any other pertinent information on an Alexander Roderic Robertson who may have died in Walla Walla, Washington in a car accident or due to injuries sustained in a car related accident, in the late 1930s (possibly August 1937). He was a salesman for a California firm and had come to Washington to meet/see his first grandson when the accident occured. From the information I have he may have gone by the name of "Bob". He either had a brother (or uncle) Howard and a sister Pat. I believe Howard passed on in 1983 in Pierce County, Washington as I have been able to find a listing in the death Index for a Howard S. Robertson in 1983. Anyone with any information can e-mail me or I am including the grandson's e-mail address herein also ~ [email protected] ~ Thank you for any information you might be able to give us.

Larry Thank you. I just returned from Italy last saturday and I had over 2800 messages, and having a lot to delete. It says on Domenico's death certificate he was a widower. I think I will call the funeral home and see if they have anything of help on the funeral record. I find it so hard to believe that this man lived that close to the rest of the family and no contact. I don't remember anyone mentioning him when I was a kid. Thanks so much for your time.

Elizabeth Pinelli died 17Jul1954 at the age of 78 in Sedro Wooley. The death index shows the death date of Domenico Pinelli as 26Mar1952 vice May as you stated in your query. He was 70 years old. Those were the only Pinelli's in the 1940-1954 index. Hope this helps. Larry Harden

Hello I am looking for the following obits: John Roderick MACMILLAN, d. Aug. 18, 1993, Redmond, King, WA Ellen K. Rogers MACMILLAN, d. Feb. 18, 1991, Sequim, Callam, WA Ian Roderick MACMILLAN, d. Jan. 21, 2000, Edmonds, Snohomish, WA Miner E. ROGERS, d. 1955, Bremerton, WA I'd greatly appreciate if anyone can assist me in finding any of these obits. Or, let me know the best way to research in WA. I live in CT and this is my first attempt at WA records. Thank you. Tracy

I rec'd an e-mail with Attachment with the Subject: Book 1 The msg with broken English wanted me to look at the Attachment for my advice. The Source was from Pete McMillan [email protected] I had the feeling that I should not open the Attachment as I was NOT familiar with the Source of the e-mail and the msg seemed too vague. So, I e-mailed back to the above address asking for more information from the Source and tho' it took a few days for a response, I rec'd one that told me that this was a virus and that I should not open it, and there was an apology for any inconvenience it may have caused me. The acknowledgement was from the Name and the e-mail address above, and signed as some kind of business. It appeared from the msg that they had just gotten awareness of this happening on the Internet e-mail. It seems that there are more and more mysterious kinds of e-mailings that are targeting genealogy these days. It is too bad that this is happening but it is well for us to KNOW who we are exchanging with and be very CAUTIOUS as to what Attachments, and data we accept. I hope this will spare someone out there the mistake of acquiring a virus doing what we like to do. Apparently it is the Signs of the Times in all that we do.

Terri Thanks so much for your time. I will do some phone calls and see what I can find. I really appreciate it. I didn't know of this Uncle until I got a copy of my Aunt's probate and his name was listed. Then someone else found his death record for me. Its nice when we can all help each other. Its really hot today. My poor dahlia's are drooping. My tomato plants have had a drink this morning, and looks like they need another. Our lawn is turning brown, but we can't water so - we don't need to mow i guess. Thanks again.

Anyone in the Issaquah area that could tell me if its possible to get a copy of a funeral record for a woman from the Issaquah Funeral Home. I just found out that I had a Uncle that lived and died in Issaquah. His name was Domenico Pinelli, died 5/26/52 and was a widower. He died in the King County Hospital. Was buried in the Hillside Issaquah Cemetery, funeral home was Issaquah Funeral Home. I have no idea of the year his wife died previous to 1952. But any Pinelli records would be helpful. I would like to find her record so I could find out if there were any children and possibly cousins in the area. I could write or call the funeral home or cemetery if I had the address and phone numbers. Any help would be appreciated. Lois Pinelli Theodoratus [email protected]

I am looking for someone who can look up and Scan/send an obituary for me to add to the family information. The name is Arthur B. Luntsford died in Seattke 1-20-1923 age 42. Your help with this is greatly appreciated. Thank you, Wanda

John I have some of the tax tokens from the 1940's. There were some in green plastic that was the same as the silver colored ones.
