In order to avoid hurt feelings, etc. regarding this topic, I propose that you all help me find my long lost, long dead relatives and then I won't have to feel as if I am an alien anymore! ;-) I'm looking for Mitchener; Mitchenor; or whatever derivation of the spelling might be out there. Most specifically a John Mitchenor who was warranted land some where in this part of what is now WVA. I thank you all for your help. Peggy

Ramonetta, I want you to know that I sent the young lady's beautiful letter and your wonderful response to all my family and friends. Thank you so much, your words were very touching. The response you got from the individual, hit my hot buttons. The individual seem to spinning facts to suit her anti-message.........if you get my drift. Reading her responses was like a reading a rerun, because last year an individual like her who was spitting out the same thing..........the more you try to explain your position the worst the individual got in their lengthy anti-message, until everyone got tired of the individual and the individual was kicked off the list, so the list could get back to normal........ genealogy chatter. So, the best thing to do is to igore the individual by deleting her messages, which I am doing now. I could say more, but I think it is time get back to some genealogy. Does anyone have a James Smith (b. 1791, Va) and (his sister) Elizabeth Smith (b. 1789, Va) in their lines. He settled in Cumberland, Allegany, Maryland. Names associated with Smith are: Hoffman, Beall, and Bloomenauer. Mary Boudreau

I'm a country women, born and raised on 4 acres of ground, by loving and hard working parents. We also had a cow, to give milk and cream, with butter and buttermilk to have for the churning. There were chickens and a pig, most years. My husband and I worked hard to raise and educate our children, of whom we are very proud. We are anything but wealthy. I stand by everything I said. I am proud of our Country, and I'm glad that I was lucky enough to be born here. This Country is the first to step in to help other needy people in other countries. I was so proud of the people of America, not just Americans, on 9/II, when that horrible day came. We all stood together. Perhaps you have had a bad day, if so I'm sorry for you.

Don't feel sorry for me and I have not had a bad day. I simply voiced my reaction to the use of strong phrases like the one used that we are "superior". It may have only been one sentence, but the choice of words were very strong and very exacting! It is an extremely strong statement that I feel is inappropriate at any time. I think it is wonderful that family and not wealth are your priority. I imagine you have a wonderful family. I simply suggest that strong statements, such as the one that I replied to are unnecessary. Also, on the subject of our country always being the first to jump in and provide for other countried in need, don't be so certain of that. Our government provided Iraq and other parts of that region with military training, funding, etc before we turned around and blamed them for all the trouble with terrorists (terrorists that our military helped to train???!!!). Africans are dying by the millions because they haven't the money for proper medical treatment, food, clean water, etc while our government stands by demanding that they repay a debt that our government is owed by their government. If we are so willing to help and so generous, why didn't we cancel out their debt long ago and send them what they need to help the millions who are sick and dying. Our government may give the impression that they are first to lend a helping hand to countries in need, may I suggest that they tell us what they believe we want to hear. Also, may I suggest, our government makes decisions based on what is best for itself and not based on what other countries need. If there was no benefit to giving aid to foreign countries, it would not be happening. Our government is not selfless in it's actions. There are many countries suffering around the world that we, as a country could afford to support and if it was going to benefit us, we would be doing it. The government paints the picture of itself that they want us to see. Pray for all those countries that cannot afford to make these types of deals with other countries for they cannot even afford to save their own people. Oh, I forgot, that would include the good old USA. We have enough money, $75 billion to fight a war in another country, just because we are good samaritans and still people in our own country die everyday because they are homeless, poverty stricken, cannot afford healthcare, cannot afford food, etc, etc. So, the next time you think our country is so superior, take a walk through a big city and see how many homeless people you can count. How does the government afford $75 billion for anything and allow it's people to starve to death or die for lack of health insurance? Pray for those that are dying right now on our city streets because our government cannot afford to house, feed or medicate them. So, the war continues and it may even cost more than the initial estimate. Where is our government now? If they are the first to give handouts, why are so many of our own citizens dying with their hands out?? Pray for change. Pray for peace. Pray for enlightenment. Pray for helping hands to join together today and everyday as we did after 9/11 and begin to give and sacrifice to help our fellow citizens dying every day. Together, we can make a difference. Step up and make a difference for someone in need each and everyday! Peace and with respect, Kyra Prestininzi

Pride in the good old USA is one thing, but a feeling of SUPERIORITY has nothing to do with pride and is quite arrogant. The statement that "no other country is as prosperous" is also one that may be worth rethinking. Other countries and people of other nations may focus on different things than money, fame or fortune. Could it be that they are focusing on family first instead of climbing to the top of the ladder and having more than the next guy. There are many Americans that also focus on family before wealth, success of the heart and soul before everything else. I think we could learn something from that! Whoever wrote that we are superior or more prosperous than any other nation should travel to Europe and enjoy the beauty of the land that is richly treasured, visit buildings that are centuries old and have been maintained for their distinct architectural qualities and beauty instead of tearing them down just to put up something more modern, more expensive, maybe a visit to a small Italian farming community where people still milk their own cows, harvest their own crops, grow their own vegetables and share in the joys of everyday life with their extended families would give some perspective on whether the USA is SUPERIOR or better because WEALTH is so much more important here to many people than in other parts of the world! The letter from the little girl is wonderful. The letter is about sacrifice, family and survival. This should be the focus of any reply to the letter, not an empty effort to make the USA sound better than the rest of the world. We are all lucky to be born, no matter where we live, most importantly, we should all appreciate human life everywhere, equally. To say that we are superior to any other countries or any other human beings would take away from any sense of appreciation we should all have for the gift of waking each day! Superiority is not an appropriate feeling or word when discussing other human beings, other nations, other religions, other races. Each one of us on Earth began in the same way and will end in the same way and in the time we are gifted here on this remarkable planet, we have a responsibility to remember that. Also, if we think of each other as a parent would think about their children behaving, well, there are a lot of people that teach their children to be kind, generous and forgiving. Teaching their children to share, be polite, accepting of others, love thy neighbor, etc. Some of these parents that have wonderful intentions in teaching their children, forget to follow their own advice and therefore, lead by example. I, myself, am guilty of that. Parenting is a good time to review what behavior is appropriate for ourselves. As we teach our children, there are reminders for us about how to treat others. Take this information however you like, for that is what we do as humans, we all interpret things differently. No two people are alike and it is a beautiful gift to us, even though sometimes it is hard to see that as a gift. Everyone needs more peace, more tranquility in life and hopefully we can always be open to learning more and drinking in more of the beauty in order that we may gift ourselves with the peace that is offered each day, in the rising and setting of the sun, in the children at play, in the smile of a friend, in the blue skies, even in the rain. The magic lies in the beauty of our planet, stop and take a sip of it and feel the peace it provides. Peace and love dance in your eyes and on your heart when you stop to look at the rainbows.

If I were a discenter, traveling to other places to rant and rage about this Country we live in, I would be ashamed of myself. There is nowhere else in this world that a country stands for so much, as does our USA. Granted it is not perfect, but is so much more superior to other countries, that we should all get down and Thank GOD, thast we were fortunate enough to be born here, and/or live here. There is no other country so properous. So many counties do not allow the freedom of speech we have, upon penalty of death. Our Country, is the first to offer food and medicines to other Countries in their moments of need. This country is the first to Loan Hugh Amounts of Money to other countries to rebuild or to make their economy stable. Money loaned, that is rarely paid back. Thank you, Dear, for showing others, how much of this countries treasures is in our young people. Good luck to you and Yours, and GOD BLESS all our service people and our Allies, and their families who have to give up so much, in order to help others, whoever they might be.

Dear Members: Please, let us not get into another debate as to what should or should not be on this list. We went through this at least once before where people's feelings got bruised and others just got ticked off. I for one have found the DELETE button very useful for those emails that I don't want to view. I do not mind getting emails that are patriotic especially at this time. However, I realize not all share my view. For those of you who feel inundated with unwanted emails, please just delete. One hundred years from now this will all be history and history is what genealogy is all about. Sincerely, Sherry Kent, WA

HOWEVER: (1) You may not be the "only one," but you are in a definite minority.

Perhaps I should reemphasize Point # 2 --- I feel sorry for you! Lee Roland Jenkins

I get lots of patriotic and inspirational messages (jokes too) from friends and family... Am I the only one who would like to have the Gen lists I belong to be Genealogy only ???? Don't mean to offend anyone, but that is my feeling.....Alice

I always thought Military brats are higher up people like a LT. or Col. or Comamader kids who are never told to stop doing the wrongs they were doing. My husband was a staff sargent at the time this Col. little girl and her mother came to my apartment and the kids climbed everything in sight. My couch, my washer and dryer, table and you name it and even got inside of my kitchen sink! Then the Army brat gave her dad more problems. The teachers can not handle her in school. Behavior like this is what I call Military Brat! Gloria Wertz of Point Marion, PA Your belt may not buckle but your knees will.

This young lady's viewpoint has to interest all with WVa roots! ****************************************************************************** *********** Hannah Reger: Proud to be a 'Brat' The 12-year-old daughter of U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sgt. Chuck Reger shares her thoughts on military family life in an essay written for her class at Buckhannon Upshur Middle School in Buckhannon, West Virginia. I am proud to be a military "brat". My dad is in the Air Force. I know how going into war affects military members and their families. If our country goes to war with Iraq, many families will be affected. Eleven years ago my dad was in the Middle East helping to free Kuwait from Iraq's occupation. The families are proud that their husbands, wives, children, brothers, or sisters are going to fight for their country but they are aware that they might lose them. If they go into war there is no telling how long they will be gone. It could be months and for some possibly years. This is hard because in that amount of time you may not get to see them or even get to talk to them. When you do get a letter you normally can't write back because they cannot tell you where they are stationed. The active duty family endures many hardships. Personnel cuts and increased conflict in the world known as "ops tempo" cause families to be separated all the time. The reserves and national guards are members of their home community. They are being called to duty to support the need to disarm Iraq. When they leave, some families experience financial debt because of the cuts in their paychecks. People who are single parents many times must send their children to grandparents, aunts, uncles, or other family members to live until their parent's deployment is over and they can go home. Our military members can miss a lifetime of moments while they are deployed. The birth of a child, a baby's first steps, scoring in the big game, and the death of a grandparent are all moments that they can't be given back. But, these are the sacrifices that each military member and their families are willing to make. After all, we built our nation to give us the right to choose to defend others and ourselves in need. I am proud to be a military "brat".

The directions on how to change to digest mode are given below. 1. How to unsubscribe. Send a message to VA-Harrison-Monongalia-L-request@rootsweb.com that contains (in the body of the message) the command unsubscribe and no additional text. 2. How to subscribe. Whatever you just did worked, or you'd not be getting this message. But for future reference (for instance, if your subscription is cancelled for whatever reason and you want to resubscribe), just send the command "subscribe" to VA-Harrison-Monongalia-L-request@rootsweb.com. 3. How to change to digest mode (several postings are combined and sent to you together as a single large message). There are two steps. First, send the command "unsubscribe" to VA-Harrison-Monongalia-L-request@rootsweb.com to discontinue mail mode. Second, send the command "subscribe" to VA-Harrison-Monongalia-D-request@rootsweb.com to start receiving digests. 4. How to change to NOMAIL mode. There is no formal NOMAIL mode. All you have to do is follow the directions above and unsubscribe when you want the messages to stop, and then when you want them to start again, simply subscribe again. 5. If you'd like to post a message so everyone on the mailing list receives it, just send it to VA-Harrison-Monongalia-L@rootsweb.com. It will then be sent on to everyone in both mail and digest mode. You don't need to send it explicitly to both. 6. To contact the administrator of this mailing list, send mail to VA-Harrison-Monongalia-admin@rootsweb.com.
