Don't get discouraged by rude people you find while researching.  I have contacted people to ask for information and gotten blasted for even asking.  If they don't want to give their information then why did they even post their e-mail address.  Some people do not have patience with other researchers.  Proof is hard to come by and unfortunately that is all some people want.  A little healthy speculation is OK and then you can look for the proof or invalidate your speculation with the help of others.  Keep on searching.   Sandy  --- On Fri, 4/3/09, Jonah Siegel-Warren <[email protected]> wrote: From: Jonah Siegel-Warren <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Q-R] QUAKER-ROOTS Digest, Vol 4, Issue 62 To: [email protected] Date: Friday, April 3, 2009, 4:36 AM Have you tried contacting local courthouses?  They have old records on file.
