List, Please do not let us sink once again into issues which we cannot change. Many, if not most of us are on this list to learn of the existence of proof of our ancestry. Let's keep it that way. I always enjoy the information regarding geographical locations, the laws of a certain period, customs and other posts. But personal opinions have no place in this forum. Now. Does anyone know anything about my 7th great grandpap, John Barrett of Isle of Wight? I really don't give a hoot about what he did, except for owning land, paying taxes and finding some indication that he begat my 6th great grandfather. bbc
