It is information that was shared on several genealogy lists, and as List Moderator and Asst. CC of Polk Co, TN, I felt it was worth sharing with the list members. Like a lot of researchers, I receive the type e-mails that were being discussed, and was glad to receive the information. Sure, there are always some legit letters, and viruses, but most turn out to be a hoax. Have a good day. Sincerely, Connie Baumann Asst.
