I am looking for information regarding the migration from Virginia to Ohio. My ancester, Benjamin Stover and his wife Sarah Chilcutt moved from Hardy Co. Virginia, now W. Virginia, to Fairfield, then Licking County Ohio around 1810. His son, my direct ancestor, George W. Stover married Elizabeth Green in Licking County. They were all strong members of the United Brethren Church. George being one of the primary founders in 1856, of Berlin Chapel later called Peachblow UB Church in the Alumcreek Circuit, Sandusky Ohio Conference. Later the Scioto and SE Ohio Conferences. He was Class Leader of that church and had License to exhort the Gospel. I have several records and documents from the church which is still open as a United Methodist Church. They recently celebrated their 150th Anniversary. I am searching for information on both the Church history and personal family history in the span between 1750 & 1850. Other names associated with the church & family are Houser, Ault, Good, Rhodes, Emswiler. Thanks, Gary Collins

Hi Martha, I have a small problem...I don't know how, but I receive individual emails as well as the "digest" version. Who do I contact to just receive only the "digest" version"? I enjoy the emails but prefer this version. Thank you for any assistance that you can give me! Linda Barnes (researching Slater, Ludwig, Stubblefield in Hardy/Hampshire Co., WV)

The new mail digest is a vast improvement over having to open each message individually. However, I don't understand why there is so much extraneous information in every message, i.e., to unsubscribe, navigation codes, etc. I am a reader of immense capacity, but I can not read through line after line of "nothing relevant" and not lose my train of thought. Could someone help clean up the digest? Thank you.

Hello John, I dislike the repetition of the footer line in the digest too, and will see whether it can be removed. It may be necessary to remove it from all messages ... perhaps a monthly reminder message from me would be sufficient. This "feature" is in the Yahoo group list digests too, and it is annoying!! Once I tried copying the digests into WordPerfect and removing all the footers but that takes more time than it is worth. Thanks for your comment, I hope that I can make the digest neater for us all.

If you mean including the previous messages in new post, that's the fault of the sender and not the system. I think good practice is to leave enough so that the reader knows what your message responds to and to delete the rest. I left the gist of your message here: Subject: [WVHARDY] format > Is it necessary to include the previous messages numerous times? > It's a simple matter of taking the time to delete the prior message when we reply to a post. On piggy-backing: I think it is a matter of courtesy that when we are not replying to the subject of a posting, but introducing a new subject, we should create a new mail and not reply to a message that has no relationship to our new one. If we don't want to type wvhardy@rootsweb.com in the address box every time, use reply, but delete the old subject and insert the new one. And delete the unrelated content in the previous message. When people piggy-back on a message with a new subject, but fail to change the subject line, we hunt through a message looking for the item of interest that isn't there. It's like getting a pile of junk mail that you have to wade through before you decide you can throw it away. And if you like junk mail because you might see something you like, you can still read everything.

I don't like it either. Is it necessary to include the previous messages numerous times?

How do I send a message to you now and I do not like the new format. Do not understand it.

Hardy List members: There is a problem with messages from Juno.com users... our mailing list program seems to be reading the message portion as an attachment and stripping it. What you are getting, unfortunately, is a blank message. I will check to see what is to be done to fix this. Not being a juno.com user I am not certain how your e-mail program can be adjusted... so will see whether the List manager's site has some solution we can apply from this end of the process. You all know that attachments are not allowed by the list software to protect us from viruses. However.... we don't want to miss your messages!

I have never had that to happen before. I am wondering > if this is happening when anyone one else trys to open your e-mails > from the Hardy Co. site.
