Just wanted you all to know that it is not me Shirley from Nebraska that sent this message. I get a giggle from it all and don't mind reading the messages so hang in there gals, once in a while it is very refreshing to have this type of banter going back and forth. I just recently lost my mother, Easter Sunday and quite honestly I need to have a laugh once in a while.

Paul, Remeber me? Your favorite pen pal? I just thought you might be interested in the e-group that a cousin of mine has just created. I just got connected with her and she has reams of papers and letters including one in another language by my ggg uncle that we cannot figure out! You can see the letter there. Please also post your stuff there and join as it is abrand new group and we need people. If you know of any cousins please bring them aboard! Hope to see you there!

Does anyone recognize these names from their Ramey family. These names were from a letter written in 1923. WHO IS THE FATHER?? Letter from Huntsville Ala. 1923. to Aunt Fannie from Richard Ramey "Sam Ramey was my 1/2/ brother" "My father had three children by wife 1, and one by wife 2, and 4 by wife 3" "We are, Thomas, Thelma, Benjamin Heally, Michael Theodore, Mary Ellen" "Father died 11/2/ 1915" (or 1916) Left home outside of Huntsville to his children above. ANOTHER LETTER TO THOMAS B RAMEY from Robert Ramey, 1898. Anyone having any clues on these families and how they connect, please e mail searching2@mindspring.com

Hi List, I am searching for information on my 2nd great grandmother Eliza Ramey b. April 13, 1838 d. June 12, 1914 and is Buried in Bud Deels Cemetery in Buchanan Co., Virginia. Eliza married Jacob Deel on March 30, 1854. As for her parents the only information I have is that her mother was Delia/Delilah Ramey from Kentucky (I think maybe Morgan County). There was no father listed for Eliza (perhaps she was born out of wedlock!) Delia/Delilah left Kentucky and moved to Virginia with her sister (can't remember her sister's name right now). I do not know if the move occurred before or after Eliza was born!! There is a story that says Eliza was kidnapped by Indians and returned home later with a child?? Does anyone have any information on Eliza Ramey. I have not been able to find anything about her.

Well Shirley, Don't worry about bubbles the original email was about genealogy and sweetie it was quite a bit of precise information dates and all!

Not to be bursting any bubbles, but I was of the understanding that these Rootsweb sites were for genealogy and all of my e mail has been back and forth between 2/3 people and not pretaining to genealogy at all. I am on about 14 e mail lists and it is frustrating to open each and every e mail that has nothing to do with genealogy. It would be nice to carry on your person topics between yourselves. Thank you.

Read the subject line and just delete.. I go thru all of my e-mail and read the sub line, delete what I don't want then go back and read what I do want... takes aprox 30 seconds... I receive hundreds of e-mail a day.......

I went to this site, wish it had all of it. However, the index did list Kelley and Kelly on these pages 294, 145,146,224. I am searching for Elizabeth Ramey b 1811 m. William Kelley or Kelly. If someone has this book could you see if my Elizabeth and William are on those pages? Please. Thanks Lisa

Gloria, There is no need for you to apologize. I know what you are going through. I have had poison ivy for over a week now. Had a shot and a prescription of steriods and still am swollen and itching. Think I will never get over it. I can't sleep either. Know what you are talking about. Prayers, Carolyn csramey@aol.com
