What on earth is a baby-boomer? Who gets to make up labels? Who is the first person to spout such nonsense? I judge people by their actions exactly as the Scriptures do. They are individuals. All others are collectivists, in the Hebrew as Babylonians, - the power of the group. It is good to hear one speak up. That is why we have the Bill of Rights, so you may be sanctified from the unwashed herd. You should meet another American, my daughter-in-law, Stacy, who has been washed and sanctified by the Blood of Jesus, to be able to exercise all her unalienable rights, purchased for her by her g-g-g-grandfather Captain David McNabb who was one of the valiant warriors at the Battle of Kings' Mountain. She loves our heritage and fights the current enemies, tories, british, and merciless Indian savages, who want to live off other people via income tax and other ridiculous agencies hired by the kitchen cabinet of the kitchen coward, Bill and Hitlery.. Stacy is delivered from such inane titles as "Generation X." "X" is an unknown factor, but not Stacy. .How good to have a daughter-in-law like her.

This sounds like a great book store and as I haven't been to Snohomish in a while, seems like a great excuse to make a trip. Will I need directions other than the address in order to find it?

Her is the skinny on your query Kit, et al- The book your queried about are River Reflections - Snohomish City - 1859-1910 @1975 by Snohomish Historical Society, Inc. Snohomish, Washington 98290 Printed in the U.S. of Amer., by Snohomish Publishing Co., Snohomish etc. Then, River Reflections Part II - 1910-1980 Snohomish, Washington, @1981 by Snohomish Historical Society P.O. Box 174 - Snohomish, WA 98290 Available: Upper Case Books 121 Glen Ave., Snohomish, WA. 98290 Phone 360-658-8282. I went there a few moment ago and found new copies only, soft cover at $8.95/vol., St Tx 73 cents + s&h.. $2.50. i.e $17.90 + $1.46 +$2.50 = $21.86 for both vols. COMMENT: This book store a few yrs ago took up only 1/4 of the store space of that group of stores. Today, I was amazed to find that it has expanded to 3/4 of the space and only the health store at the S end of it exists. One of my 6th grade students from way back operated a store at the N end of that bldg as an excellent store for patchwork quilts, consigned needle-work, and infants creative home-made type wear. Twas great to see her as a mother, fine wife, and business lady in her late 30s/early 40s. I'm sure she is still in business closer to he home. This bookstore is huge, now, and is a maze of racks of books. Of course, I had to ck out the gen. section - not like Darilees, but has some pretty good ref sources, that I will probably ck further - like Who's Who's series, and other possible sources for info. Darilee has stopped in there and the proprietor is a friend in the book world. All this atop the Gulch right across the St from where I was born. Glen Ave was not called Glen Ave in my day as a kid there, it was Glen St. - didn't go all the way through then, still doesn't. What used to be called St. is now called Ave. and vice versa. Lakeview Dr. and Lakeview Ave. are exactly the same St. but it depends on the source- The City calls it one, but the Post Office insists it is to be called the other. It is a dead-ended street, but the street sign there says Ave., but the P.O. calls it Drive, or vice versa. Anyway, like many things in Snohomish, conformity is not kosher. PHONICS is even being re-introduced. The last administrator didn't follow through with the "campaign promise". JOHNNY still has trouble reading! ( NOT yours, of course!). * * * 30 * * * ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

A lot of us get many, many posts from many different genealogy mailing lists. If we keep it more to just the direct discussion of genealogy, I think it would be beneficial to all of us. That's not to say that many (it not most) of our ancestors didn't come to Ameroica for political and religious freedom in the first place; that's one thing, evangelizing on the list is another. ~Maudeen Maudeen@bainbridge.net Book Reviewer -www.Amazon.com Genealogy surnames: WEATHERLY, INMAN, NEELING, CAMERON, CHASE, HAUSER, ARNEY, ROARK, BLAIR, CRAWFORD, PURCELL, HAZLETT, HAISCH, WIPF, MILLIGAN, CRESWELL, STAHL, SCHULZ, HENDERSHOT, OLMSTEAD, SPEAR, COLE, LEE, STUCKEY, FAY, THOMAS, CROSS

Re: PSRoots-Digest Version V98 #373 Topics #4,#6,#7 PSRts always comes through with the helpers, & John Sloniker is one of the best - he always come thru with the answers, suggestions, and info that is sought. I really enjoy reading his mail. Speaking of reading one's mail (which just happens to be an expression that hams, or amateur radio oprs. use for listening in on others xmissions or transmissions when we want to learn something out of the "eves dropping" -it is a common and acceptable practice. Kit, thank you for your query, Lady Dar I call her affectionately, just good friends, the BOOKSTORELADY is a veritable gold mine of Books and information. You would wonder how she would ever find time to opr. a computer from the achive of books she lives in at her work- but up on her Loft - is the real goldmine for genealogists. No wonder she made it on TV, recently, and rightly so. If you ever visit Marysville, be sure to stop in at the 3rd Street Bookstore and meet Darilee - she is a great gal - no, not great meaning avoirdupois, she is great of heart and dedication to her work and those who have been "bitten by the bug" - you all know who I am talking about. And TATANKA834, another great soul, great in spirit and devotion to the good of the cause, aka savior of Edmonds Cemetery, or Edmonds Memorial Cemetery which in the 50s, and perhaps early 60s was an eyesore, derelict, desecrated, vandalized, and a blight on the community - beautiful Edmonds. But, Glen saw the Problem, had ancestors buried there, took on the battle, the City et al. and in time was able to get that Cemetery turned around and now it is a place of honor and pride. There should be a plaque in honor of Glen Grace at the site for what he has done there - but like Snohomish, it takes an act of Congress ( & who likes Congress) to get anything accomplished. Averill Field in Snohomish goes un-named, un-plaqued, un-recognized. It is on maps, in brochures, but just try to see a sign or indication of where or what Averill Field, and Who was Averill? Only the old timers know, or a few who have related the Story to a younger person. They know Hal Moe Pool, but they probably don't know anything about Hal Moe. Thank you Glen Grace for having a Cemetery in Edmonds, that is worthy of a Veteran's Day ceremony let alone the Pride of the community and of the persons buried there, plus their descs. OFF THE SOAPBOX: BOOKSTORELADY'S info is correct, - the book store at Glen St right the parking lot of Collector's Choice Restaurant, within the confines of the Starr (not related) Mall Antiques bldg.- is an excellent book store, but of course not as voluminous and as auspicious as the one in Marysville!!! (LOL, Hi Hi, LAFF !). The ZIP for this Pioneer and Indian (Nat Amer) town is 98290. Please let me check that source to see what the tab would be for one, or two, copies of River Reflections Vol. I & Vol 2, w State Tx, s&h. Then, I will get back to you. It is now 9:17 a.m. so it is a bit premature. Nothing moves this early except some of the locals who find it libate time and make the rounds. What is interesting about Upper Case Books, 121 Glen Ave., Snohomish, WA. 98290, 360-658-8282, location in my time, having been born right across the street at 806-2nd Street - was A GULCH! And I used caps becuz that Gulch was so deep at its deepest place that three three story houses could be stacked on top of each other to come to the level of the present blacktopped area. Actually, where that Bookstore now resides, is where the Redicks, some of our top citizens in this town lived right on the edge of that deep gulch - their house stood partly on stilts, and we all wondered if that house would ever fall into that deep gulch if we had an earthquake, or whatever. I used to wave at Mrs. Redick, our close friend of our Family, when we used to play along the creek in that deep Gulch. The Gulch was on both sides of 2nd Street, and some kids would crawl through the huge drain pipe that went under 2nd Street from one side of St. to the other. Because I didn't care for spiders, spider webs, etc in my face, I never made the journey - they called them "Sissys!" which wasn't Cool ! Remnants of that Gulch may be viewed on First Street at 1st St and Glen Ave. just to the Right of the Eagles Hall - that was a continuation of the Gulch that we knew. Now, that I have advertised some of the Places to Visit in Snohomish, I shall squelch further disseration. But, not w/o COMMENT about River Reflections. Both books were and are an endeavor to present Snohomish history as told by some who lived here and who gathered the material. They do state that they realized that not all has been told and that perhaps many things have been left out. This happens with any endeavor of this kind. I am thankful we have these two efforts to enlighten us on early Snohomish. They are both informative, and REVEALING. The PRIORITIES for historic preservation were in many cases positive, when it came to certain things, such as restoring old, historical sites, especially houses. BUT, when it came to places as Averill Field, Snohomish Cemetery, aka Pilchuck or Indian Cemetery, and other items of history, the Priority was for naught.(at least next to it). At Central School in Snohomish we were taught that you count: Naught, one, two, three, etc. - then new language changed it to - Ought, one, two, three etc. - but in time we got to the word Zero ( which many of us know as zilch!). This is not exactly true, efforts were made at times to do something about the Cem. but Priorities got in the way - economics, wars, highway construction, all sorts of diversions resulted in neglect and desecration of Snoh. Cem. These are known as RATIONALIZATIONS, and in Snohomish, do we have RATIONALIZATIONS! But, you all see at the National level - the RATIONALIZATIONS, "Reasons" for doing this, that - and the national election - the TV channels are buzzing with RATIONALIZATIONS for what happened as an historical event(s). Will it ever END? I doubt it! >From Snohomish - Carroll * * * 30 * * * ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Please excuse my typing error should be ISBN # not ISMN. Jean Hazard

River Reflections is an anthology edited by Verne Huser. Contributing writers are Edward Abbey, Tom Brokaw, William Faulkner, John Graves, A.B. Guthrie, Roderick Haig-Brown, Edward Hoagland, Washington Irving, Norman Maclean, John McPhee, Sigurd F. Olson, Ernie Pyle, Wallace Stegner, John Steinbeck, Mark Twain and Znn Zwinger The book was published in 1988 by The Globe Pequot Press, Chester Connecticut. ISBN 0-87106-673-4. I believe you can call any publisher and give them the ISMN # and they should be able to find a copy for you. The price at the time was $12.95 and is paperback. It might be out of print. Jean Hazard

Oh, I didn't know there was a "forum" for evangelization. I thought we were to go into all the world and preach the gospel. That is the purpose of the Bill of Rights, so we may do that. And that is one of the reasons our veterans fought the wars - against Communism - international or at home. Tyranny is the enemy of the Gospel, whether it comes in the clothing of "agendas," "forums" or any other death machines. Christians are alive. It is written, and thus commanded: Quench not the Spirit. And the Spirit speaks expressly and at all times, and everywhere, I believe, as the Saviour said, "...the wind bloweth where it listeth..." Perhaps you need a more thorough reading of the Scriptures. And perhaps of the history of our wars. I would suggest you study the life of Alvin York, old Methodist, and see the glory of the soldier of Christ. Ritual is the death of the saint. By the way, where would you say the "appropriate place" is? And yes, you are mistaken.

Thank you, Marilyn. I went to a service in Chattanoga yesterday. Patriotism is alive and well here. Not everyone that is dead is buried yet, but those of us who are alive can think and make judgments and give thanks. Wait until they run into the Pilgrims! Their images pale in the light of the reality of these true founders of our nation. It is remarkable that the Mayflower Compact was signed the same day as the Armistice. The true glory of the American soldier rested on Alvin York in World War II. And further back, Martin Luther, Germany's temporal saviour, was born on that day. The Lord keeps anniversaries. But many love death. It was noted that it was the 11th day, the 11th month, the 11th hour when the Armistice was signed. Providence defeats Hollywood. But as I said, there are many breathing dead people. They need to be regenerated. Are they ignorant of our soldiers' Saviour? Do they not know that many were saved by the New Testaments Roosevelt furnished them? I have a copy with FDR's charge inside. These little books were a literal bullel-proof shield and guarded the heart of many soldiers. I have heard the testimonies and museums carry these mementos where the bullet pierced the Testament and the man was saved. I don't suppose some people have much education. May you have a true Thanksgiving. If you will write me, I will send you a copy of the original account of the Pilgrims first Thanksgiving which we found at a home school conference. We read it every year in our Thanksgiving service. It is drawn from "Of Plimouth Plantation" written by Gov. Bradford himself in 1620. Write me at 522 Crestview, Dayton, TN 37321 or call 423 775-3796 and I will put you one in the mail. Thanks again for exemplifying the American spirit.

Carroll Clark , CLARKW7IML@Juno.com, would know where to buy it. I think it was written by the Snohomish Historical Society (the ones responsible for the desecration). ........Glen

Will some one give me more information on the book "River Reflections"? Where is it available and who is the author. It has been mentioned several times in the Snohomish cemetery discussions. I would like to read it. Thank You. Kit

Kit ... River Reflection is a book put out by a historical society for Snohomish City and general area. There are two volumes.

I have also reported it to the ISP of the sender. Whenever you see this type of junk e-mail on a mailing list you can ignore it because the list owner will deal with it.
