Viola, I'm going to use you as an example of what I was referring to in a recent post to the List. Please don't be embarrassed, as I'm sure you are new to this and we all had to learn sometime. I asked that users NOT post if they can't format good Subject lines. Then, I asked the rest of you NOT to reply to these posts and keep the Subject line the same, i.e., "Surnames". If you DO reply to such a post, PLEASE change the Subject line to match the subject of the material in the body of your message. AND, if you are replying to something that involves just you and the sender, PLEASE send to that sender's private email address, NOT back here to the List. THE RULES ARE: ONCE YOU HAVE MADE CONTACT WITH SOMEONE CONCERNING A SURNAME YOU ARE RESEARCHING, CARRY ON CORRESPONDENCE WITH THAT INDIVIDUAL VIA PRIVATE EMAIL, NOT HERE ON THE LIST. This List is only for making initial contact. It is too crowded to be a place where individual correspondences are carried on. Thanks, SgtGeorge George W.
