hello everyone: i just wanted to say how sweet and conforting it is to have this digest available to me. i have written in a few times myself, needing help or offering to help. i recentally hooked up to roots web digest and it is awful. there is so much bickering and e-mails that come through to you at are hateful if you ask the wrong question. the subject matter in some areas isn't fit to talk about in a mixed croud. so i just wanted to say thank you for being such a sweet group of people and for keeping this digest clean and to the point of genealogy. take care and im glad i have this little space to come to..maggie coughlan
