Looking for descendants of Katie Belle Bass Williams who died 23 March 1958 in Cleveland. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

WILLIAMSes in Tennessee Heritage Books Inc. has published a bibliograuhy by Donald Hehir 1996 who has done other regional books. I found a copy at my local Genea. Lib. Eleven books are listed; including Thomas WILLIAMS, Daniel WILLIAMS, Benjamin WILLIAMS, Uncle Sam WILLIAMS,Jeremiah WILLIAMS, James Tate WILLIAMS, I feel it is worth perusal. Bud.

Does any one have a William WILLIAMS born about 1837. He was born in GA. living in Randolph County, Al. in 1850. I have not been able to locate him any where after 1850 Parents are William and Cynthia [email protected]

Is there a will for Davis Williams who died 27 January 1829 Edgefield, South Carolina? Also, did his Mama Ann(e/a) HENDERSON Williams Potter leave a will, or his Dad Daniel Williams son of Daniel & Ursula *Henderson* Ried/Reid? Where in Edgefield are the people of this line buried?

Up front I don't consider myself a know-it-all, but I think a couple of things can reduce the frustration level and help those seeking information to actually get someone to read your email. A couple of valid points have been made about this discussion on genealogy programs. I think it is a valid topic. But, the title "What do you think?" doesn't say much about what is in the email or in any of the replies which followed. Some of those follow-up emails had little to do with the original email. A well thought out subject line can help clear up some of the problems and may even help some of you get questions answered. I delete a lot of those type of emails, especially after a have read a few with the same subject which hasn't applied to me. A simple change to the subject line would be "What do you think about FTM 6?" , or "Does someone have an opinion on the changes in FTM 6?" Even adding "I prefer FTM 5" or "Look at LDS program" to the original subject will alert everyone that something new is being discussed along the same lines. Had I not read through almost all the emails in this thread, I would have missed a few questions about specific ancestors that someone was looking for and used the reply mode to ask the question and didn't change the subject. Nothing particularly wrong with that. But if you really want some useful information and get someone who might have that informationn to read your email, take the time to edit the subject line with some reasonably specific information like,."John Williams Barren County KY 1830-1880", Or "Looking for Hosea Williams marriage to Jane Jones c.1858 in VA". It is more likely to get someone to read it who can help. and it is also polite to those who can't help and can delete the email without reading it. Just my humble opinion. Hoping it helps someone.

Deloris, Will this program from LDS work on webtv? My cousin is just starting in genealogy so unable to use FTM because of having webtv. Thank you for all the info and directions for using the LDS program. Nancy De Haan Channells

I agree with you, it seems like lately this site has become a discussion board for the problems a few are having with their computer programs instead of a Williams discussion board. And yes I agaree, with those who say we should help each other out, but take it private, instead of jamming up this site!! I for one am tired of opening my email and finding so many unrelated postings!

I don't use FTM, so am not interested in the conversation. However, I can delete them, but it would be even easier to delete them if the subject line stated that the message is about software. Then I wouldn't have to read the message to see that it doesn't pertain to me.

Maybe I am wrong, BUT , I feel the help is great. I am sure all of us doing genealogy have some kind of program to keep our info.. So I feel the help is in a way genealogy related. Correct me if I am wrong.....Dawn

Also, note that sometimes it downloads the entire package, with all of the various languages, including English. In that case, just go into the program, and it allows you to click onto the language you want to use.

Thanks for the help. i plan to downlod 5.2 and carefully watch if and when a language decision needs to be made. by the way where are the williams family you are apparentlt researching from. mine are mostly in Indiana as far as i have gone. Thanks again. Edward Jennings Pigeon Forge, TN

Thank you for the advise. I will download 5.2 multi Language. By the way where are your Williams ancestors from in the USA. Mine are, as best I can determine in Indiana mostly but some could be from Illinois. Thanks again Edward Jennings Pigeon Forge, TN
