Friends and Family, We now have over 115 WOOTEN researchers in our group at Roots Web. New members may want to visit several of the web sites of our WOOTEN researchers. Would each of you, with a genealogy related site, please post the URL for your site? Valuable information can be found at each of these sites. All members of our list or digest groups are encouraged to post their family links on the list/digest at Roots Web. If you are new to using the list, send your information to me and I will gladly post it for you. We also have a fellow WOOTTON researcher in England, who has joined our group. I do not want to post his e-mail without his permission, but will be glad to forward an initial message to him. I have had several inquiries about THOMAS BOX WOOTEN. Would someone with detailed information on this family please post the information on the list? Others are seeking information on the family prior to THOMAS WATTON/WOOTEN, Isle of Wight, VA. Please post information on his ancestors, the COUNCIL family, or other related ancestors. Thanks for all the positive messages about my preliminary exams for the doctorate degree. I did survive the three days of written essay exams. The future holds a defense of these exams and completion of the dissertation, then I will be finished and ready for a new adventure.
