There is a search engine that taps into the archives for all rootsweb pages. I think this is it: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl As I understand it, you can search whatever you want: a surname, a location, an event. I also have this -- for searching USGenWeb: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/issearch.htm If these URLs don't work and nobody else gives you something better, let me know and I'll hunt some more.

I would like to pull up some messages from December 1999 if at all possible.
