I hope the list will forgive me for using the list to say this, but when someone made the remark, "if the Wests were the greatest people, they would share their information with everyone", I have to say something. Due to health problems, I can't make an offer to look up information for everyone because I don't want to offer help that I may not be able to follow through with. But you might want to know that every letter that comes through the list, if I am physically well enough to do it, I check my books, etc to see if I have anything that connects. And it I have anything I send it to the person requesting it. I feel that the person requesting it probably knows if anyone else is searching for the same name and they are free to pass it on to others without making a lot of extra mail for those that have no use for it. So I join with Myra in saying there are an awful lot of nice Wests out here that do help others and a lot of them have helped me. That's why I want to return the favor and help as many as I can. I may have to unsub to the list from time to time because I can't keep up with the amount of e-mail. But when I'm on the list and able, I love helping others if I can. Eileen
