I believe that Jno. is an abbreviation for John. Rose

A John Davis is listed in the 1860 Montgomery Co. Census Christiansburg PO pg. 703. Could someone with the 1860 Montgomery census look this up for me. It would be greatly appreciated. Becky

Jno stands for John according to Greenwood's REACHERS GUIDE TO AMERICAN GENEALOGY, page 28.

On Ancestry.com, under Pulaski births, there is a individual listed under Sheffey. The name is S. Mason Sheffey and this person is a girl. Her parents are Craig and Ann Sheffey. (You have to be a member to view this info). Is it possible that someone in or around Pulaski can look this up for me at the court house. I believe this is my 2g grandmother and her name was Mary Georgia or Georgia Mary but she was called Macie. The date was Jun 20, 1887. Thanks Angela

Hello: I do I trace an adoption that occurred after 1900 but before 1910 in Pulaski County VA? This information will answer a lot of questions. Please advise. Thanks Angela

Hi Rena and list members; I must have missed the message about the Botetourt Co. Heritage Book being published. What is the price of this book and how is it to be ordered? Thanks. Martha Q.

Hello, We are planning a trip to the Montgomery County area soon. In addition to visiting the library at the county seat, and the Wilderness Road Regional Museum, both of which we will do, does anyone have any suggestions for other "must visit" genealogical resources there in this area? Would appreciate any information or input, especially from those who live in, or are familiar with, the area. A. W.

I am please to finally get to write this letter. The Botetourt County Heritage Book is at the printer. I hear from them today that the projected ship date is May 20, 2001. I have ordered a few extras, so if you haven't placed your order, Please do so, to be guaranteed a book. Rena Book Chairman

I RECEIVED THIS FROM ANOTHER LIST AND THOUGH I WOULD PASS ON. Someone told me a general method for aging photos that works pretty good. Maybe it will help you, too. yellowish photo appearance is usually 1870's brownish photo appearance is usually 1880's gray photo appearance is usually 1890's black clear photo appearance is usually 1900's

Bess or Bessie would traditionally be a nickname for Elizabeth. But, anyone can have any sort of nickname that their family wants. > [Original Message] > From: Angela Griffin <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Date: 4/2/01 9:42:44 PM > Subject: [VAMONTGO] Nickname > > Can someone tell me if Bessie is a nickname for Georgia or May? > > Angela > > > ==== VAMONTGO Mailing List ==== > The Montgomery Co VAGenWeb "Books" page is located at URL: > http://www.rootsweb.com/~vamontgo/mont-lup.htm --- Rebecca Emmett --- [email protected] --- EarthLink: It's your Internet.

Can someone tell me if Bessie is a nickname for Georgia or May? Angela

Phyllis, of course your apology is accepted. Goodness, you are human and so are the rest of us. We have all made mistakes, hit the wrong button, etc. Don't worry about it. Take care, Susan PS-To err is human, to forgive is divine. Susan Taylor Woodson [email protected]

I have taken care of the problem that arose today with the inappropriate posting. In the future if this should happen remember to contact me or the person involved OFF THE LIST. By replying to the list it only creates more problems. Thanks, Rhonda Smith list administrator

Hello G. Lee Hearl, I usually don't respond to these types of messages since it just seems to add fuel to the fire, but I feel I must in this instance. Also, normally I'd respond to just the person in question, but since the initial note was sent to the entire list, so is my reply. The note you wrote below was uncalled for to say the least. I know Phyllis and I can tell you that she DID NOT do this on purpose. Your phrase below that each note was sent as a separate message to each list, is incorrect. It is indeed possible to send out an e-mail to one person or a handful, but accidently hit the wrong button and send the note to an entire group of e-mail addresses. The condescending attitude you take is not what is needed on a genealogy listserv. In fact, the very act of sending your "reply/rejection of Phyllis' apology" to the entire listserv, is spam and meant to embarrass Phyllis. If you had a problem with her, you should have written to her privately in a courteous manner. You haven't embarrassed her; you've embarrassed yourself.
