First of all, I'd like to apologise to Anne for not speaking up sooner, I'm reading email on vacation on my son's laptop and I have no addresses on it. I have been able to access my email, and finally, I have to speak out. We are all so fortunate to have people like Anne and Mark to work so tirelessly on keeping up with our growing group of Webb lines, close to a 100, I believe, each from researchers like us. As individuals, we are concerned more with our own line and our own efforts, but Anne manages to stay on top of every thing, and does it with a great deal of graciousness and class. Thank you, Anne, you are appreciated for the work you do, as is Mark! One of the main concerns of my family when I asked them about being donors for this project was privacy. The DNA of a line does not just belong to one member of a family, but to all and it is VERY important that this issue is treated with the care that Anne takes. Anne works to help all that call on her, and she has sent people to me, I know, that she feels might belong to our group. I have called on her when I have met someone online, to see if perhaps she could connect that person to a corresponding line. She handles it all, as I have said, with grace and class and PRIVATELY. Again, thank you, Anne. I was correct in telling my brothers that their DNA information is being protected and controlled by responsible caretakers. I'm sure most of the 100 other donors appreciate that as well. I am blessed to have several cousins that work my same Webb line out of NCarolina, and they do not have a problem with the DNA web site being password protected. They receive the newsletters, and if they have any questions, they email Anne or myself, and of course we are glad to help out. I would never pass on any information about another participant without Anne coordinating it, that "rule" protects me as well as others in the project. Thanks once again, Anne, for all you do!

We are going to save the DNA posts until the new list is created. Every one who is interested may join the new list and run DNA as open forum Thanks The regular list genealogy may continue. =======> Dan M
