Hello McDowell County List, Traffic has grown quite quiet recently. These lists will appear at a "lull" occassionally. To correct this noticeable appearance, perhaps those that will, take a moment and introduce yourselves. We've added quite a number of new subscribers over a period of weeks. Nows the time for all of us to get to know each other and to learn a little of what's brought us all to our McDowell List. Here's a few suggestions to include in your post: 1. Your ancestors McDowell communities. 2. Your SURNAMES [all in caps] 3. Your McDowell county research material [for lookups] 4. Your experiences researching at the McDowell courthouse 5. Your query (brief ones) 6. Your McDowell County web sites, links, good research sites Come on list, the success of our McDowell list belongs to all of us! It all ultimately, depends on each one of us.
