Family Origins has not been "bought out by RootsWeb," or anyone else for that matter. It really is not an appropriate topic for this list but I had used Family Origins since version 3, and for legal reasons involving another company (not RootsWeb) Family Origins 10 is the last version released quite a few years ago and it no longer exists. The creator has a new and far better software which I now use, but Family Origins no nonger exists. The current software is called RootsMagic, but to my knowledge Family Origins is no longer available and hasn't been for five years or more now. David E.

Amazon has had copies of my book and has been distributing them since mid-week. The title is Ballykilcline Rising / From Famine Ireland to Immigrant America (University of Massachusetts Press). ? The book is an account of the rent strikers in Ballykilcline, County Roscommon,?who were evicted in 1847 and '48 and "assisted" to New York by forced emigration. My book considers the social, economic, and political conditions in Ireland before the Famine that led to the strike and then locates a cluster of the evictees in Rutland, Vermont, and follows their lives and the community they built there for about 20 years as the marble industry boomed. Some of them, for instance, took part in labor actions in Rutland and lost their homes a second time. Some of them prospered as Vermont farmers; some of them went farther west -- to join an earlier settlement of Kilglass Parish people in LaSalle County, ILL, or to go on to the Minnesota frontier before it became a state. One family had a child kidnapped by Indians. I found evidence linking one or two men to the Fenians, who attempted to invade Canada several times during the 1860s. A number of the men fought in the Civil War. One man from Ballykilcline was a suspect in the murder of landlord Denis Mahon of Strokestown. Evidence in the story also suggests, that as their original story-teller Robert Scally (The End of Hidden Ireland) suggested, there may have been?an "underground?market" for their Crown passages across the Atlantic.?The story focuses on about a dozen families for whom mini-profiles are provided.?Rhode Island is mentioned in several places. ? Anyone who had ancestors from Famine Ireland likely will be interested in the information about conditions in both Ireland and the U.S. in the middle 19th Century. And genealogists may be interested in the records tapped to produce this story. ? Mary Lee Dunn

Gals and Gents, I am embarrassed to ask this question, as I am sure it has been answered here and on the former RIO list, but I am desperate. So at the risk of redundancy, My father and I have been searching for many years of the parents of John Randall, Revolutionary Soldier with no success. We have the family from John, but not his vitals and particularly parentage. I am not sure NARA would have that information and it is expensive to get his service record and time consuming. The following is information from his service record provided by the Adjutant General of the State of Connecticut: /Reference: Record of Connecticut Men who Served in THE WAR OF THE REVOLUTION Pages 86, 100, & 320 Enlisted 13 July 1775 as a Private in 2d Company, 8th Regiment. Discharged 10 December 1775. Re-enlisted in 1776 and served in Captain Gallup's Company commanded by Colonel Parsons. Re-enlisted 1 January 1781 in the 1st Regiment "Connecticut Line" as a member of Captain Buell's Company. Discharged 31 December 1781./ As you can see, their information comes from a secondary source and does not answer any of my questions about the man. If you should be very interested in this query, additional information can be found on my Web site (below) Thank you in advance.
