In an attempt to make the 196 pages posted last night a bit easier to "work with", I have installed a search engine at <http://www.macatawa.org/~brianter/MAThomasIndex.html#VanArsdale Search Engine> ... Please be aware that the engine will search all pages on the "Mac Net" and as we live in a Dutch community you may find material not of interest to you (then again, you could find a long-lost line).... We have about 30 Genealogy pages (because the VAN name is not our only pursuit <grin> and the others get some time, too). There are other VAN additions to the pages ... not just Mark Alan's work. Happy Hunting! Terri Rene
