pj, I just updated yesterday from Windows XP and already wish I had it back. Hopefully this will go where it is intended .Forgive me if some of your questions regarding the Foys have already been answered. All my old XP mail has not yet been transferred. I answered you yesterday before the transfer but my message has not come up. Maybe I didn't hit the right button to "send". I THINK what I recall saying was that there is a James Foy in Graves Co., KY., age 14 that might be yours. I also recall saying that the Foys are listed as JAY in the Weakley county published 1860 census. My FTM has not yet been transferred from my old computer and I'm not sure when everything will be transferred from old to new so I can't tell you much about what I have on the Foys. I can tell you that if you have Foy ancestors in this area, you may be related to Pat Boone. This past summer I was in a much overgrown Foy cemetery with Nick and Trish Boone in Graves County. I don't recommend going there. It's very overgrown and full of ticks. I didn't get any but Trish got three, one already attached before she found it . Just look in the Graves Co. cemetery books. Mary Louise PS I can tell you that my grandfather's sister-in-law was Etta Foy. I don't recall her parents but they're in my FTM plus more.

Mary, I also have just purchased a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium. Like you, I missed my XP. I bought my computer at Best Buy where my grandson is a member of the Geek Squad. He told me that for an extra $100 I could upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium, to Windows 7 Professional edition which has the old XP operating system included with it. XP runs on Windows 7 just like another program. You can run all of your old software, including FTM just like before. It's easy to switch back and forth between Windows 7 and XP and you can copy files from one to the other. Kinda like having 2 computers in one. Not trying to push software . . . just an FYI for anyone having to deal with the new Windows 7 operating system. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Mary Louise Gossum" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, September 18, 2010 10:53 AM To: <[email protected]> Subject: [TNWEAKLE] Foy > pj, I just updated yesterday from Windows XP and already wish I had it > back.
