Dear List Members, Let's have a two Day Roll Call, Beginning tonight, Saturday, February 8th ending Monday night, February 10th. Please remember to change the subject line to match your posting. Please give us dates if you know them and any additional information you wish to share. It would help if you put your surnames in CAPS.

I am hoping for further proof that William H. Cook (1831) and wife Louisa are the parents of my Stephen Franklin Cook, 1861, Yazoo Co., MS. The family moved to Eastland Co., TX in about 1870. They are listed in the Eastland Co., TX census for Dist. 8; Wm. H. Cook MS Louisa Cook MS Stephen F. Cook MS Joseph C. Cook MS Eddie R. Cook TX Daniel P. Cook TX Jas. D. Cook TX Wm. may have gone by the name "Will." If anyone has any further information on these folks, parents, etc., please advise. Thanks in advance! Jerry Johnston Scottsdale, AZ

List, I am lookng for an obit for Laila Eiffert who died April 18, 1966 in Ranger. I would appreciate SKS who can look this up for me. However, if no one is available to do this, what newspaper would be the best to contact to see if one was submitted. Also, is there a death index that available before 1940? Thanks, Wanda
Dear List Members, I look forward to the year 2003 being a great one for our list. Because of the amount new members we have subscribing every day, I feel it is time to again post the suggested rules of the list...even us long time members need reminding once in a while. 1 I have very few rules on the lists I watch over. The main one is to treat your fellow members as you would like to be treated. Also the posting of virus warnings, test messages, chain letters, political announcements, current events, items for sale, personal messages, flames, etc. (in other words - spam) is NOT ALLOWED and will be grounds for removal. Consideration for exceptions, contact me Kathleen Burnett KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net 2. If someone posts a message to the list that should not have been posted, please just delete it. Know that I am taking care of the problem. When you post your unhappiness, then you just continue on the problem. I know it is hard when your heart has been offended, but for my sake, and the sake of the list, please just delete it. Rootsweb has a wonderful Spam Detective and it stops most of it. You should see what comes across my screen. I have to look at each of them to make sure that what was stopped was truly Spam. Once in a while, one slips by though and if this happens, just delete it and go on with what we all love, genealogical research. Some suggestions to make our list run smoother are: 1. If you would put information such as names, places, and dates relating to your posting, in the subject line, it might give you a better chance to attract the attention of someone who has the information you are looking for or the attention of someone who is searching for the information you are posting. 2. Please remember to delete the taglines and un-needed words when you re-send a message to the list with your answer. If you don't check this, your responses can become quite large and may cause problems with some of our member's servers. This member who might not be able to receive your message because of its size, just might be your long lost second cousin with all the answers you are looking for. 3. Remember to keep your Virus protection up to date and never open any attached file unless you are 100% sure what it is and even then you are taking a chance. If you do notice that one of our members has a virus, please do not post their name and e-mail address across the list. Let me know and I will take care of the problem. Most likely the member already knows and is in a major state of stress. Receiving messages of each of us will only cause his or her stress level to rise. 4. Please remember, we have members from all walks of life, all ages and all levels of education on our list. Be understanding. The very person who mis-spelled every other word in their posting could be the very one with your missing family bible in their attic. Some sites to remember: 1. There is a great Rootsweb site, Password Central, you can go to if You want to find out what Rootsweb lists you are a member of or need to unsubscribe from a list, just follow the instructions. http://passwordcentral.rootsweb.com/ 2. If you would like to visit the archived messages for this list you may go to http://archiver.rootsweb.com/ and type in the name of the list you want to see the archives for. From there you can search by date. 3. If you are interested in knowing about other mailing list out there, one of the very best inventories of genealogical mailing lists is John Fullers Genealogy Resources on the Internet located at http://www.rootsweb.com/~jfuller/gen_mail.html I want to thank each of you for your continued support of me and your willingness to help make this list the success it is.

Kathleen, You have a superb Christmas planned!! You deserve it. Merry Christmas, Bev
Dear List Members, On Monday, December 23, I begin my Christmas Holiday week. I am spending it with my four children, their wives and husbands and my 9.5 grandchildren. It will be the first time in over 10 years I have had all my children with me for Christmas. I am thrilled to say the least. It is hard, as many of you know, when all of your children and grandchildren live thousands of miles from you. As you have already guessed, I will not be spending as much time as usual online watching over your list, but I will be back to full time on Tuesday, December 31st. I have also chosen not to have a list-sitter watch you while I am away. I really do not think you need one. I will be checking in each evening after the grandchildren and down for the day. If there is a problem which you think I need to address, send a personal message to me at KathleenBurnett@earthlink.net. I will check those first thing each night. If off topic messages are sent or if suddenly someone calls for a Roll Call, please just let it pass. Just smile and remember what I would say and hit that delete button. I will take care of the problems for you as soon as I check in. I have the best lists on Rootsweb and the greatest members so I know you will be just fine.

Julie From a quick look around online I believe your Francis Marion Lance was born in White County Tennessee and was the son of Anthony Lance. If this is true you will want to take a look at county court minutes which a team of us have been putting online at http://www.tngenweb.org/white/ The work is not complete and if you insert the word Lance in the search box you may find some pages which will not come up. Be patient. We have worked for over a year already on these court books to bring them to all the descendants of White County folks.
