Hello SUMPTER List Members. PLEASE, do not click on the "Reply" button of this message unless you wish to send a personal response to me. A new message must be created to send a message to the SUMPTER list. For the benefit of new subscribers and those who may have forgotten the SUMPTER list address for posting queries, the address is: <SUMPTER-L@rootsweb.com> We have 56 members subscribed to the SUMPTER List. Surely, all of the SUMPTER / SUMTER "brickwalls" haven't been hurdled. I would imagine that there are many SUMPTERs / SUMTERs on the "Genealogy Most Wanted" list. <grin> Some subscribers may be thinking that the RootsWeb SUMPTER list has died based the lack of activity... only one message in the last 10 days. Please consider using the SUMPTER list for finding a cousin who may have information on your "Most Wanted" SUMPTER / SUMTER ancestor. Also, as a help to other researchers, please consider posting two or three descendant generations of your earliest known SUMPTER / SUMTER ancestor. Come on... help get the SUMPTER ball rolling!!! Later on, additional generations can be submitted. Normally, two or three generations of data will not exceed the 20KB limit established by RootsWeb. In the subject line, please consider entering the earliest ancestor's name, birthdate, birthplace and death if known, for example: John SUMPTER; b. 1720 VA; d. 1800 KY. Please consider sending a copy of any query response to the SUMPTER list. Please remember, when a query is answered by clicking on the "Reply" button, you must manually insert <SUMPTER-L@rootsweb.com> in the "Cc:" address line in order to also send a copy of the response to the SUMPTER list . PLEASE consider submitting any SUMPTER / SUMTER data discovered while researching your ancestors. If anyone wishes to discuss any aspect of the SUMPTER list, please feel free to call on me via my personal email address: <myoung@icok.net> Happy Huntin' to All, Jim Young List Moderator and RootsWeb Donor
