PLEASE NOTE: Marriage index CD's do NOT show parents. They only show microfilm #, date, and county. They cannot be searched by bride name either. The geneology disks deal with prominent or historic families only. For information that's listed in paragraph form, I can only copy to a word document. They do not let you cut and paste. Please limit requests to no more than 2 names and I have to have a general time period to know where to look.

Hello, all: On the 1921 death certificate of a gentleman who died in Donwood, Kanawha Co. (just over the Fayette Co. border on Morris Creek near Montgomery), the place of burial is given as Briston. Undertaker was P. Mulligahs of Montgomery, if that is of any help. Any ideas?? Thanks! June

Hello, all: Reading an obituary in the Fayette Tribune, September 15 1921, the deceased's occupation was stated as: "he was the operator of the drum for the Straughan Coal Company, having assisted in the opening of the mine" and "was the drum runner when it was abandoned". Could someone tell me what this man's job was? Thanks to all!! June

My apologies to the list for the repeat of my message (I did not resend it) and thanks to all who have responded. The first piece of mail I got today was the Fayette list with my original message on it, so please ignore that. There must be a gremlin busily at work out there, so I'll just close down my computer for the time being and hope it is gone by the time I'm back online. Thank goodness I've only had this problem with two of my lists! Eve Hughes

I have sent several e-mail messages to this address trying to unsubscribe. All of them have come back as addressee unknown, even though I continue to receive the digest version of the list. My computer will be shut down until sometime in April, and I would appreciate it if someone can help. Eve Hughes

RE: Microsoft Corporation Security Center: Internet Security Update Dear Friends and Family, This morning I received an official looking email "from the Microsoft Corporation Security Center" with the subject "Internet Security Update" and the attachment "q216309.exe" advising me to install the attached executable file to update several vulnerabilities in MS Outlook/Outlook Express. The attachment is indeed a VIRUS more commonly known as the [email protected] worm/trojan horse. Please see http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/[email protected] or visit www.symantec.com Security Response center for more information about this threat. The email was NOT from Microsoft, which was my first indication. Microsoft would never send me an Update as an attachement via email unless I had requested it. DO NOT INSTALL THE q216309.exe ATTACHMENT if you receive a similar email. It will release the virus on your computer and send itself to dozens of other addresses logged in your system... including me and I really don't relish receiving dozens of this message again. DELETE THE MESSAGE when it arrives. Thank you! Julie McGrew-Ayres [email protected] WVFayett-L Admin
