Jeanne, Thanks! I am a little slow and I'm sorry about that. Been under the weather a bit. But I have the Vermont data online now. Did a little rearranging on the front page, putting Ray on his own page. I have to get the new code on Vermont still for Rays site. I still have to link everything up in Massachusetts before it is online. I should have it done and "live" tonight, but it depends on how I am feeling later.

December of 1905: I recommend that Indian Territory and Oklahoma be admitted as one state and that New Mexico and Arizona be admitted as one state. There is no obligation upon, us to treat territorial subdivisions. of convenience only, as binding us on the question of admission to statehood. Nothing has taken up more time in the congress during the past few years than the question as to the statehood to be granted to the four territories above mentioned, and after careful consideration of all that has been developed in the discussion of the question, I recommend that they be immediately admitted as two states. There is no justification for further delay, and the advisability of making the four territories into two states has been clearly established. ---Theodore Roosevelt.

I never knew that at the time of the debate over admitting Oklahoma and Sequoyah as separate states or a single state, there was also talk of combining Arizona and New Mexico territories as one state. Seems that some of the congress critters of the day thought that was a good idea. Not a very popular idea back in those two territories. -- "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what to have for dinner.

This is another good reason for cremation- As they used to say- dust to dust and ashes to ashes No leftovers for the wildlife to pick through later. I plan to be cremated, beside what can happen with Mother Nature, I do not plan to lay and just dry up to bones, or rot away. With all said aout the ground water, why should I add my body to the mix?

Mining is one of those subjects that has lots of avenues for research. You can research information about the mines themselves: who owned them, who worked them, etc. Mining seems to tie in with the railroads, as well. I also try to provide researchers with what was mined. If, for example, you know that your ancestor was a miner in a specific location in the east and then they moved west, you might want to find out what they mined, because that could give you clues about where the went to. According to things I've researched, there is some type of mining in all 50 states. www3.gendisasters.com has information about mining accidents, train accidents, natural disasters, etc. What researchers want is names. Names of who died, who was hurt, who helped, who didn't help, who the rest of their family is/was, etc. With some mining operations, they also tie into the ghost towns. When the mine shut down, the last people still living in the community were..... and they died..... Family lore is a wonderful things as it can give you clues to find your ancestors. If you have always heard that your great great great grandfather was a miner on the **** Gold mine and he lived in a specific area, but it wasn't near any gold mines, you might want to start looking for mines by that name and find out what type of a mine it was. From there you can get clues to where they came from. We all have different ideas about how to research something. But anything that COULD help a researcher, whether it is our preference for doing research or not, is worth making available in some form. Just my thoughts.
