Hi Everyone, Deb Puschkar brought to my attention the above mentioned obituary which is posted on a message board. The URL is: <http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=message&r=an&p=localities.northern.usa.states.kentucky.wiley&m=6280> This being so long, it may not be clickable. The URL begins "http" and ends "6280" so be sure it all gets copied to get to the correct page. If you have trouble, let me know and I'll send you a copy by private e-mail. There are copyright considerations here. Thanks Deb. Iris

Hi Everyone, Our cousin Debbie sent me the following URL. http://computerproblems.com/answer.cfm?AnswerID=33150&QuestionID=33213&CatID=41 It is a site that reminds us to be very careful not to open certain e-mails. If you think a message looks like it is from someone you don't know - don't open it. This involves a new version of the klez worm. If you can see the e-mail address send a message to the sender asking what their message to you was about. Most of all BE CAREFUL! Thanks for the heads-up Deb! Hope you are all having a great summer!

I am interested to see if my Susannah Kendall who md David Hays ca 1843 in Pendleton Co had any connection with Richard Mann. He would have been older. Evidently she was living with a Richard Mann at the time of her marriage. I have no idea if she was indentured or simply working as a "nanny" for his children. I know most of her history- daughter of Sterne Kendall and Elizabeth Owens. My problem is David Hays.

Hi List, I sent Ann the information on the marriage of Richard MANN and Susan F. Yelton (d/o Benj. & Sarah Fryer Yelton). They were married in Pendleton Co., KY 24 Oct 1888.

Hi Listers, This is a great website to look at. It may help to explain some of our ancestors behavior. I've been reading for hours. Enjoy, Iris http://xroads.virginia.edu/~UG97/albion/albion2.html http://xroads.virginia.edu/~UG97/albion/albion3.html http://xroads.virginia.edu/~UG97/albion/albion/bib.html

Dear cousins, I was just "passing by" the Rutherford County, NC site and noticed the list has been changed somewhat. http://www.rfci.net/wdfloyd/cemy1.html lists the Yeltons and their gravesites in Rutherford County, NC. Don Yelton "Let's Roll"

Hi Everyone, There is going to be a slowdown in mail over the next few days as Ancestry/Rootsweb updates the servers used by the mail lists. So, I'm not sure when you will receive this. Does anyone have this couple in their files? I can't seem to place Keturah. We have several Yelton/Moore marriages, but I don't have this one. And, I couldn't find it on Cheryl's Website. R. Frank Moore would have been born in 1878 and died in Covington, KY 7 Dec 1936 at age 58. I don't have any dates for Keturah. Will talk to you all again soon, Iris

Hi Cheryl, Not too pushy at all, do you want to do it or shall I? Don't know why I couldn't think of looking for an address. And, I was even on the Presbyterian Website a little while ago......DUH! How's the remodeling coming along? Iris

I looked around & found a church directory with this e-mail address: jeffyelton@netscape.net Would it be too pushy to write him & ask about his family???

Hi List, It has been awhile. This name came from another list I am on and I just wondered if anyone recognizes this Jeff Yelton. I'd sure like to place which branch of the family he belongs to.

Hi Paul, I know we have some members of this group that have very strong faith and I'm sure they will join me in praying for some answers about your condition as well as relief of your symptoms. It is very difficult to concentrate on something like genealogy when illness - especially such undiagnosed illness - gets in our way. If we can help you with the genealogy part in the meantime please don't hesitate to ask us. We'll be glad to do whatever we can.
