This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/zhB.2ACI/1127 Message Board Post: Hello Marshall Co.! I have returned from the great lands of Tennessee, and I have to say that I am not sure Im totally happy to be home! <BG> But got in and have been updating myself on the board here, and wanted to pass a couple of things! First of all, thanks again to all the monitors of the board for keeping up while I was gone. Great Information that I HOPE finds it's way to our site??? Second, Boy, after doing some research for only about 10 years now, I know that I have posted some queries to boards that showed I had what seemed like misinformation, and I have seen some queries that had information that I had facts on. The point is this, we are all working toward the same goals on this board. We all have to work together to bring all of the information that we share to correct facts. If we are patient with our contributors, and remember that we should be grateful for any contributions, then we should be gratious enough to help weed through information for the facts. Some people do not monitor this board on a full time basis, and some just come back after months or years to check for new information. I don't think that any person on this board would intentionally attack anyone else. Sometimes our words are 'heard' through type as frustration, but like I said, we all share the same goals. I hope that all of our contributing persons and their lines of family ! can work together to bring our lines to light for others who may someday join us. Please remember that we share our facts and finds through the goodness of our hearts, and not by having to. If you have come to this board with information to share, with proofs you have slaved to obtain, then know that we are more grateful than you would ever know for your help. I know that due to my financial and my time contraints due to family that I would never be where I am today with my lineage if it were not for wonderful people out there like on this board. We hope all of you continue to be a part of our Marshall site, YOU make it successful, and I look forward to working with everyone. Take care all! Look for the new Marshall site on the TNGenweb soon!
