Dear Cousins, I'm writing you tonight to ask for your help. Eileen Myers (Dusti) who is our webmistress for the Claiborne County Pioneer Project (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ccpp/pioneer/index.htm) has lost everything she owns in a house fire. The house burned down to the ground and every car she owned as well. There was NO insurance on anything. Her husband is very ill as well and is on the donor list for a bone marrow transplant. When it rains it pours! I'm asking for your help especially if you're connected to the Lynch family which is Dusti's family, to help Dusti rebuild all her genealogy files, pictures, etc. If you'll be so generous to share these things with her, I will collect them for her and put everything on CD for her to have when she's ready for it. Dusti is one of the people who cheered me on 11 years or so ago to start this list. And I'm the one who got her hooked up with Denny and Marla Brubaker years back to get all the Pioneer Project Index online for us all. She's helped boost that Project in unbelieveable ways. I think before we went online with it Denny and Marla had 30,000 or there abouts people in their database. Now we have about 100,000 Pioneers of Claiborne County in the database. And 188,000 plus hits on the website of people who have benefited from Denny and Marla's hardwork but from Dusti's as well. If you have any Lynch info you'd like to contribute please send it directly to me and I'll burn however many CD's I have to for her. And if you'd like to help Dusti in some other way I'd be happy to send you the newspaper article and some info on how to help her if that's your desire. Warmest Regards, Pam
