I appologize for whinning to the list. That is not what the list is for. I'm sorry. So many of us have worked so hard and many of you that live in other states have been so kind to offer additional material on some of the families. I have been seriously neglecting my own family research and I think I will spend some time on that. You guys hang in here with Bill. He is really a great guy and was involved to share information to those that do not live in this area of the state or do not live in the state. I will be around and you have my email address if you need help and if I can give it.

These are my |family |and the information was submitted by family. Here is another instance of |someone taking research done by other people and copyrighting it and then |selling it. My personal copyright attorney tells me that information of |public record CANNOT be copyrighted. | |To those of you who helped us with some of the material and those that had |offered to help, thanks.
