I have recieved so many angry replies because of this roll call. But come on people thats what the delete button is for , if you don't want to spend the time to look at them ,and maybe take a chance on missing the one person that will put your family tree together then just hit the delete button. But I for one appreciate this roll call as I have hit a brick wall with my Williams line and this atleast gives me some where to start the search. Remember if you don't want them just DELETE , DELETE , DELETE . The time you spend sending an angry reply could have been spent deleting all the mail you don't want. Teresa Thompson Williams

My brick wall is Joel Williams Born in North Carolina about 1795 and was found on Perry County Mississippi, Census 1850 Page 378 House 120 His wife must have died before the 1850 cenus. Took his family to Myrtle Springs Van Zandt Co. Texas about 1853. He lived with his son ASA before he died after 1870. Probably died in Van Zandt Co. Tx. Ray Anderson adunits@pair.com

Hi all, I think the roll call is a good idea and we should keep it going if for no other reason than to build up the archives for those who follow us in our search but is it possible to edit the subject line a bit. e.g.. all e-mails from the list start with [WILLIAMS] so we know that the subject has something to do with our family research and this is automatically generated. Can I ask that the very first thing that we should put is where the Williams connection comes from. e.g. Aus Charles David WILLIAMS; or UK James and Charlotte WILLIAMS, or US Bill and Betty WILLIAMS. That way when we get an e-mail from the list the subject line would read "[WILLIAMS] UK James WILLIAMS". If you aren't chasing family in the UK then delete it then and there. The delete button is fine but I still have to read about WILLIAMS' is the US when I know I have none over there. Sounds simple to me and it would help to prevent me getting RSI. By the way I really am interested in Aus Charles David WILLIAMS b abt 1844 in Lancashire, England and his parents in the UK James and Charlotte WILLIAMS.
