Myra, This a great idea. I would love to have it go to the entire list. Sometimes you only have half of the situation and wonder about the rest.. I have had to mail some asking them to send me the info also. You are great, Keep up the good work. Marlene West Perry

I would rather have my replies sent only to person with whom I am communicating. When I want to interact with entire list, I can do so. Thanks, Bev

Souds like a good idea to me

I for one would like to see all of the postings as you never know when it will turn up some piece of information I have missed. Thanks Dianna

Sounds good to me!

Hi, I have decided to try something new to the list, but since this is *your* list, I would like to know what you think about it. I have set our mail mode to have replies to all posts sent to the entire list. So many times someone posts questions, and the replies are sent only to the original poster. The answers often would benefit some or all of us. Another option is to have the replier click on the icon that says "Send to all". This would send the reply to both the original sender, plus the entire list. Please let me know what you think. As I said, this is your list, so I wil be very interested in your thoughts on this. Have a Happy, Myra Listowner

Good Morning Myra & ALL, I like the idea,sending replies to the list I think this would be a benefit to all.With so many West we need all the help we can get. Thanks Betty West Hall in AL.

Hello all! Several persons contacted me regarding WWWQ lookups. I deleted all addresses and would like to hear from the below-referenced persons again, please. (1) Someone wrote to me asking for help tracking Benjamin WEST. Additional information available if that person will send an address. (2) Walter sent scanned copies from a book of photos. Walter, please contact me again. (3) Finally, someone researching Eber WEST contacted me, and I sent him an address. Another Eber researcher has surfaced, which I will pass on if that interested person sends me his address. Guess I will learn to add addresses to my address book before deleting messages! Thanks. Later, Fran

Hi cousins: I have tried to send this message for 3 days, and I apologize if you get it more than once. Has anyone lost an Elza/Elisha/Elijah West? The family below was enumerated on the 1850 census in Gibson County TN. Two of the children, James and Elizabeth, match the limited info I have on my West line. Some of the other names, Anne, John, and Franklin, also occur in my line. 1850 Gibson Co. TN Census Elza. West 40M TN Anne West 37F TN Louisa West 16F TN Joel West 14M TN James West 12M TN Sarah West 10F TN Elizabeth West 8F TN Azariah West 6M TN John West 4M TN Franklin West 2M TN William West 4mo M TN Ann West 4mo F TN This family is not on the 1860 Gibson Co. TN census, and I have no idea where they went. Anyone else interested in this family? Dennis West in Knoxville, TN.

Dennis, If you see this post on either of your addresses, please let me know which one. You seem to be subscribed so don't know why you are not receiving posts. Myra

This is a forward of a message from a fellow researcher: To All Doing Research - If you will & when you have time, please write to Texas State Rep. Tracy O. King of Dist. 43: Room E2.314, Capitol Extension, Austin, Texas 78701. He is trying to put together information to write legslation to give a better and clearer access to Texas Birth and Death INDEXES. Most court houses will NOT let people look at the index. They will get a particular birth or death certificate. BUT how do you know what you want if you are doing research and are tracking down people you do not know about. Please write him and express your desire and need to OPEN ACCESS TO INDEXES. - Bert Bell
