gosh you guys are kind with each other when it comes to the problems inherent in the 1900 free access. I am not stupid but it still says I am already online (?) no matter which of my 3 email addresses I use. Katie in MD

I again have been asked for my article or comments concerning genealogy and the copyright provisions in the U.S. Code known as "Fair Use" (of the words and works of others). That article was published by NGS, however older copies of the NGS Newsletter in which it appeared are not available on the internet. I have scanned that article, and it is on my web site at the URLs set out below. NOTE: the article was done by Mrs. Linn and me when the internet was very new. So, though what is "Fair Use" of the published words and works of others is very important to all genealogists and has not changed since this article, the law as it relates to the internet yet is evolving and is not clear in some applications. So, I defer to you who have knowledge concerning the recent effects/rulings of the "Fair Use" provisions as those apply to the internet. (Craig? Brent? Janet?) Further, though such affect what is "Fair Use" only indirectly, the periods of protection for copyrighted works have been to a measure extended, and unpublished works likely now may not be copied and published by other than the original author or his/her heirs or assigns no matter how long ago created. Still though, for our purposes as genealogy buffs, what will be viewed by courts as "Fair Use" remains quite as it has been for some years. The article is 5 pages in length and is in order by page at: http://webpages.charter.net/pdd50/cr1.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/pdd50/cr2.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/pdd50/cr3.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/pdd50/cr4.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/pdd50/cr5.jpg Paul Drake JD Genealogist & Author <www.DrakesBooks.com> 931-484-9129

I get my VAROOTS in Digest form and got the below posting on the Access Genealogy URL being DEAD. It is not DEAD as I went there and used it for two hrs. or more. People please read what the info gives as it states what to do, where to go, where NOT TO GO, one does need to follow instructions in genealogy as well as in ones proffession. If one does not follow the directions you can not get to where you wish to go. When these companies state a URL will be god till such and such a date it will be good till that date. They can not afford to cut the time short is hurts their PR and that they can not stand. So please people read the instructions/directions on how to use this as there are still several days in which to use this site and find many ancestors. Read an old post of this list to get the entire article about the 1900 FREE Census.....Beej [[And this is exclusive to AccessGenealogy.

I DID NOT OFFER this 1900 census. If your read the info it came from GenGateWay and not me. I just thought in sharing this info with others that may not know of this offer. NEVER AGAIN.

hey hey hey ... :( don't take it personal ... if people say they can't access or are having trouble accessing a link, eventually it will be worked out or an alternitive link will be posted that "might" work in their situation :) remember email does NOT translate the tones, meanings and aceints the way the person who posted them was saying them :) we are all in the same boat of helping one another where and when we can ...
