To the list members and distant cousins, Recently... like so many others, I've had some "interesting" PC troubles where the main hard drive that I've used for quite awhile, is now inaccessible to me. This appears to be until the 2nd hard drive comes up to that level of programs and the subsequent updates. We've lost count as to what level..... My problems were NOT caused by any PC virus or worms... It was just caused by simple Install-Uninstall of programs that permanently modified the files.... along with a couple of hardware failures. Altho most of my data was able to be switched over to CD's... ahead of time, I'm finding that my addressbook and favorite bookmarks.... were NOT included. Eventually... I will figure out just exactly where I was, as I go back thru my CD files, but in the meantime... I'm a little lost here.... < GRIN > If you've been waiting for me to "reply" regarding something. PLEASE NUDGE ME. If we've communicated, say in the last six months or so, could you send me a very short email...... just to make sure that you're in my addressbook?? If you happen to see where we do connect... but haven't conversed yet, then feel free to send me a note. I'm always looking for "new to me" cousins. Geographical areas of research has been; Acadia - Colonial VA - Colonial NC and SC - Georgia - Alabama - Louisiana Kentucky - Tennessee - Texas - Maryland - Pennsylvania - Ohio - Indiana I'm certain that I'll miss a "few" of the SURNAMES that I've been working on ........ but here goes; MACON-WOODARD-MASSIE-MOSS-JOHNSON-PLEDGE-PLEASANTS-HADEN and assoc. lines RICE-STRATTON-McCALL-MOSBY-JOHNSON and associated lines THIBODEAUX-MELANCON(MELANSON)-BROUSSARD-MOSS-CAMPBELL-WHITE and assoc. lines ROSSER-WORTHING-LEFTWICH-VINSON-HURST-McDONALD and the associated lines. On my husband's lines; GRIMES-BROWN-POE(PFAU)-BEANBLOSSOM(BONNENBLUST)-JOHNSTON-LUDY(LOUDY) WARVEL-CHRISTIAN and associated lines. I've been working on such a wide base... following the leads that present, that I'm certain that there's just not enough room here to list them all.
