Thanks Steve, That is good advice! Especially the part about VERY LONG filenames with dozens of spaces after the filename but before the file extension. I have had several sent to me ... One question for the list, WHAT ABOUT BACKUPS of files? Windows has a backup utility that if used regularly would make the threat of destructive viruses much less scary. Why not make a copy of your data and have a "rescue disk" to get you started on the road to recovery? You can backup to a floppy, a CDwriter or ZIP...and there are services online that offer it. It is worth it if you do something stupid like I did and inadvertently double-click on the wrong email in the list and execute a file that destroys EXE files. Then of course there was the AOL virus that came from my daughters email! I had backups though and it was irritating, and I had to clean the viruses using my Virus Protection but no need to REFORMAT... A special warning to those of you that are also using cable modems...especially if you have two or more computers that are NETWORKED you are a sitting duck. The hackers will find your system. Get FIREWALL protection(mcafee has one that is worth every cent of $20 cost) Hackers (yes even in little ole Spartanburg!) can BREAK IN to your computer and then propagate viruses and God knows what else and you will never know it. There may not even be any kind of known VIRUS associated with this problem...maybe just some mysterious VBS files that have appeared on your hard drive or desktop and a system seems "slow" at times. This is FOR REAL and not a hoax. Of course the Cable Company(I won't EVEN get started on THEM!) won't tell you that you are vulnerable unless you call them like I did to ASK. OK I will step down off the soap box :-) Remember this is Free advice from a NON expert that is worth what you paid for it!

I have located a number of male FLOODs (all spelling variations acceptable) but, todate, in the wills I have, not a single one has admitted to fathering one or more daughters? Can someone help me identify the parentage of the female FLOODs I find? Your help will be most graciously appreciated. Thanks.

Is there anyone with a 1900, 1910 or 1920 census that includes Pickens Co.? If so, would you please do a lookup for me? I'm looking for Wm. Elkanah Marchbanks GREER (called "King" and "Kaney/Caney"), b. 1880 [keep note that his first name could be almost anything and GREER might also be GRIER] This is my grandfather and he was married two times abt this time,and I need anything I can find! Wives' names...children names...birthplaces if given...anything. He must have been married in the 1900 census to Leila/Lela FOX with inf. dau. Clemence, b. 1900. Next he married Elmina POWELL, then he married # 3: Nettie FLETCHER, a Dutch woman who spoke no English. This third marriage must have taken place abt 1914 and Nettie must have died by 1923 as my grandfather finally married his fourth wife (my grandmother) on 23 Dec 1923. Thank you for any help! Godspeed... Dolores Miller Pringle

Does anyone have the complete 1910 census and can do a look up? Anderson Co, James Thomas Hudgens b 1870 wife Laura 1870 I really would like to know the children's names. Thanks for your time and trouble, Derrell Oakley Teat

Since many newcomers need to know more, here is an Official Off-Topic message with some pointers on where to get more information. First of all, you CAN get a computer virus by opening an attachment to an email message. Attachments that can contain malicious computer instructions (e.g. virus, worm, trojan horse, etc.) include files such as MS Word documents (*.doc or *.dot), MS Excel files (*.xl?), Visual Basic files (*.vb?), and any executable program (e.g. *.exe, *.com, *.bat). Filename extensions are the characters after the last period in a filename (e.g. *.doc, *.exe, *.vbs, etc.). If your computer doesn't show you the FULL file extensions for ALL filenames, then don't open any attachment without first verifying that it is safe. To be sure what type of files you are opening, always check the full filename extensions before opening the file. You should also learn what types of files do not contain executable instructions and are safe to open. When in doubt, don't open it. In Windows 98 you can turn on or off filename extension display with the VIEW menu "Folder Options" in either Control Panel or Windows Explorer.

>From OnBoard - Newsletter of the BCG Volume 1, Number 2 (May 1995) Of all the documents we hope to find on people of the past, wills can be the most informative and the most misleading. Far less rigid in form and content than deeds, licenses, or bonds, wills offer their authors the opportunity to express themselves, their personalities, and their preferences and prejudices. But a will’s informality and latitude, clouded by changing customs and lexicology, can lead to misinterpretations and missed clues. As we analyze a will for latent clues, the following questions are prime: Is the will an “original” or a recorded copy? If it is an original on loose paper: does it bear the testator’s signature or mark? An actual signature or a distinctive mark should be preserved in our notes. Matched with others elsewhere, it is vital to sorting identities. does the text flow smoothly from the bottom of one page to the top of the next? Does the handwriting match throughout? Loose papers are more easily pilfered or altered. Sheets can be removed or replaced—by heirs who don’t like the terms of the original or by descendants seeking to hide information or “prove” certain points. If the will is a clerk’s recorded copy: has the original been preserved? Check it to eliminate the possibility of a copying error and (possibly) obtain signatures for testator and witnesses. Does the will begin with an oath? (e.g.: “In the name of God, Amen . . . .”) If so, the testator was not Quaker or did not belong to a similar religious body that eschewed oath-taking. Are “infants” or minors mentioned? If so: the estate may not have been settled until the last reached adulthood. Probates and court records should be checked for at least two decades. Children over fourteen might later sue for a change of guardian. Newly adult sons and husbands of newlywed daughters often sued for possession of inherited property or money. Also remember: “infants” might have been on the verge of adulthood. Legally, the term only meant that the person was a minor. children “of tender age” were commonly under the age of fourteen. Was education willed for children prior to the mid-1800s? Outside the Northeast, mid-to-older teens were not likely to be schooled unless the family was elite. Does one heir receive only a token? Don’t assume that heir was “written out” of the will. Check conveyances and tax records to see if he or her husband received property in advance. If testator refers to such prior bequests, again check conveyances and property rolls. Does a grandchild receive a special share? If of same surname, this is likely the child of a deceased son or an unmarried daughter. Grandparental wills often favored such children because they lacked a male provider. Does testator state relationships to certain people? Those terms can mislead. Sons/daughters-in-law may be step-children. Sisters/brothers may be in-laws. Cousins may be any relationship past the first degree. Nephew may be grandchild. Does the will mention debts, property, or beneficiaries in another region? This may be a clue to prior residence or origins. Are slaves manumitted? Significance can depend upon age and color of those freed, religious affiliation of testator, or whether testator has a living wife or descendants. If a master freed all slaves or willed they be freed after the death of his spouse, then religious scruples may be at work. If he freed slave children, particularly when calling them mulatto and citing their mother as Negro (most particularly if he names no wife in his will) then kinship may exist. If a slave couple or elderly slave is freed, long-term service is more likely to be the motivation. Slave names may also suggest other relatives of the testator, since the given names of slaves often duplicated those within the master’s family. In general: pursue all witnesses, but remember: witnesses could not be heirs. verify recording; check court actions to see whether will was contested. do not assume a named wife to be mother of the named children. if any heir bears the name of the person whose parents we seek, we must still prove these are one and the same people. —Elizabeth Shown Mills, CG, CGL

This is a HOAX and you can read all about it at: http://w3.gwis.com/~jrich92/upgrade.htm When people don't check to see if these virus warnings are a hoax before forwarding them, it makes it much more likely that people will not pay attention to the real viruses out there, like the new one that comes with an attachment titled naked wife and will devistate your hard drive. This one has hit the news on the telly and is a rather nasty one. It deletes so many files that there is no way to heal, you will just have to reformat.
