    1. Re: [TNGREENE] Surnames in Subject Line, please-- Give us information
    2. George W. Durman
    3. Dixie & Debi: Debi, you are correct. It's just a matter of going to the subject line once a person starts composing a reply. By clicking for one of the actions available (will depend on the email browser; mine, Eudora, has REPLY, REPLY ALL, FORWARD, REDIRECT), then clicking in the Subject line, one can type whatever is required and delete out what is not required. To select the entire line, just put the mouse pointer at the beginning, hold down the left button, and drag the pointer all the way to the end. That will "highlight" the entire line, which can then be deleted by hitting the Delete key on the keyboard. But..... usually when replying one is still somewhere in the area of the original subject, and may want to indicate the original post was on a different subject. In that case, typing a new subject and enclosing part of the original in parens with "Was:" will do the trick. Example: (using Debi's reply as the example) Subject: How To Change Subject Line (Was: Surnames in Subject Line...) Or something like that. While we're on netiquette, how about everyone learning how to delete all of the original body except what is absolutely necessary? When replying it is not good netiquette to quote back ALL of the original post. All that's needed is just enough to let others know what is being replied to. Delete out all the rest and replace with something like (snip), (snipped), (deleted), or anything to show that there was something there originally. AND, for heaven's sake, delete out all the garbage like footers about how to unsubscribe, etc. Hope this helps, Sarge (BTW, I've been doing this since BEFORE there was an "Internet", back when we used Bulletin Boards, hubs, etc., from the DOS prompt. Right now I manage about 4 dozen Mailing Lists and about the same number of Message Boards.)

    3. It's pretty basic is to change the subject line - just go to the subject line, delete what is there for the current subject and put in what your message encompasses.

Nothing is more frustrating than to see one of those "generic" subject lines like "Need Help", "My Family", etc. A format that I have always suggested to the users of the Lists I administer is this: SMITH, James W.; b.1829; m.BROWN, Ann; PA>VA>TN>Smith Co., TX This gives just about optimum subject line content in the shortest possible format.

In the first example it lets other users know exactly what the original sender needs help on. Here's a couple other "tips" that help when formatting subject lines: 1) Put SURNAMES in ALL-CAPS.

It will be much easier for people to find you in the future.

    1. [TNGREENE] John W. Lamb
    2. Barbara Kesterson
    3. Could someone tell me who this John W. Lamb is in this abstract below? I have a great-grandfather, John W. Lamb and I am wondering if this could be my great-grandfather. Please help. By 1872, Elizabeth was married to John W. Lamb. There was a lawsuit against Elizabeth Lamb and Daniel, James, and Jane Everhart in May of that year filed by William Hawkins. Mr. Hawkins was the man that William had sold his share of Nicholas' property. Only fragments of the suit have been found and it is not known what it was about, but it was settled out of Court in 1873. On 2 November 1872, Elizabeth Everhart Lamb and John W. Lamb sold her undivided interest in Nicholas' land in Greene County to Daniel, James, Anna Jane, and Anna Everhart for $400. In 1858, Anna had paid William Hawkins $950 for the interest her son William had sold. Had real estate values declined almost 60%? Was the decline in property values a result of the Civil War?
