Ruby and Jackie, You may not need "one more" amen, but here it is anyway. I am one of those at a brick wall, searching for a Whaley great-grandfather who didn't have the courtesy to leave a clear trail. Even though I haven't found him yet, I fully expect to, eventually, thanks in large part to the quality work and extreme dedication of you two. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

Nelson | Wednesday, April 05, 2000 Subject:Ruby Nelson and Jackie Weeden | Message:To Terri Parker, etal. from Nelson and Weeden. | We are completely shocked at the bitter, caustic, insulting message by Terri | Parker that came out on the Message Board this morning. We don't think we | have EVER had ANY contact with this person. We are in communication with | a Terri WHALEY who is a descendant of Joshua Whaley and Sarah Crow | and she indicates that she is happy with what we have shared with her and | indicated that she is buying one of our books. | I, Ruby Nelson, write for Jackie Weeden, Whaley researcher, who is not on | line. I give her copies of messages and she hand writes answers. Weeden | has researched ALL Whaleys for over 30 years. She has done hands-on | research in many eastern and central states. She has over 50 notebooks | full of Census Records, Bible records, birth, death and cemetery records, | pension records, etc. of every state she could find them in. She has over | 900 Family Group Sheets in her file and I am typing them onto disks and | am sending them out by attachments. This is a free service. She shares | pension records from her file (and she has over 300 of them) and does | not charge for copies even though they cost her approximately $2000 out | of her own pocket. Weeden does not put out data that is not documented. | She is always willing to work with other Whaley descendants if there are | any differences. So WHY is she being called names? This message from | Terri Parker should NEVER have been sent out on the Message Board | as it is highly improper for some disgruntled person to make disparaging | remarks about a fine researcher that will help others make a poor judgment. | I think an apology is needed here. | Send further messages by private e-mail to [email protected] | | To WSP members--Well, shall we continue or call it quits???? | Ruby | | | | | | | _____________________________________________ NetZero - Defenders of the Free World Click here for FREE Internet Access and Email http://www.netzero.net/download/index.html
