Dear Bruce, There are several Daughertys listed in the Pioneer History of Midland County, TX (printed in 1926, I believe), but no Foremans or Chamberlains. The Daugherty given names in this book are: Clem, Dan, Edna (Hall), J.S., Lena, S. W. W.A. Willie, Wm. Howard, A.L. (Mrs.) and J. If you are interested in any of the details on one of these folks, let me know. I'll scan the page of the book they are listed on.

Hello, I am proud to announce the creation of a new mail list called TX-Cemeteries. This list has the encouragement of Gerron S. Hite, Cemetery Preservation Coordinator in the History Programs Division of the Texas Historical Commission and he's excited at the opportunity to share his feelings about our cemetery preservation to a large group all at once Others that have been notified, Lee Campbell, Past Representative for the Texas State Genealogical Society {and my cousin} and her friend, Past President of the TSGS Wanda Donaldson. I've let all the following people know about the list and they may join from time to time. Yvonne Pickens, current President of the TSGS. Trey Holt, coordinator for the Texas GenWeb. Wyndell Taylor, creator of GA Cherokee County GenWeb page, {and my cousin}. <Smile> I just have a lot of cousins !!!! The main focus of this list will be to locate and catalogue our endangered cemeteries. Gerron Hite has obtained a new program to help us give our cemeteries "Historic Texas Cemetery Designation". He is willing to help us learn how to accomplish this designation. This will also be a topic for us to address. I am an experienced RootsWeb mail list admin. Currently I manage the mail list for VARoots, SC-Old Pendleton-District, and the Brand surname list. I am also experienced in the survey of large and small cemeteries. In addition to the topics above there will be discussions on how to preserve and restore old monuments with the help of a caretaker with over 25 years experience. To join the mail list simply send a message to TX-Cemeteries-L-request@rootsweb.com with only the word subscribe in the subject line and nothing else. If you prefer the Digest send a message to TX-Cemeteries-D-request@rootsweb.com with only the word subscribe in the subject line and nothing else. I look forward to seeing you there, Respectfully, donna brand

I wish to thank everyone who responded to my request for a current address for AIS - Accelerated Indexing System - and there were many of you! First I must apologize for a mis-typing. I MEANT the 1870 Texas Census not the 1860 Texas Census. Many of you pointed out that the 1860 Census index is only 1 volume, not 6 or 8. AIS has been purchased by Heritage Quest in Utah. Phone # 800-760-2455. I verified the phone # and the fact that they had bought out AIS. However the 1870 Texas index is now on 1 cd and they prefer to sell the cd rather than the printed versions. They are checking to see if any of the printed volumes are still available. Again thanks to everyone who offered suggestions and shared information. Genealogists are cerrainly a very sharing community. David

Hi Dave, The current phone number for the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, which is who I think you need to contact, is 1-801-240-2584. I tried to call them to be sure I was giving the right number, but I called after normal office hours. They give several options on their recording, including the link for ordering resources, which is www.familysearch.org <http://www.familysearch.org> . I followed the link, but not deep enough to find the AIS, if it is available online. Good luck!
