Those of you looking for information on specific surnames may want to go to http://www.rootsweb.com and use their search capability on the Roots Surname List. I think there are over 50.000 entries there now, and I personally have had two connections made thru my listings there and people who have responded to my listings. Searching is easy, and I would encourage you to also list your names.... its very simple and will increase your chances of connecting with others searching your line.
