Well said, User920035! I, too would be exceedingly happy if all the Lists to which I belong had more listings like the Freedmen information. At the present I don't think I have any need for this particular information, but might someday see where there is something very important for me included therein, after all, my children are part Cherokee. So, I am saving it all in my files for future reference. And a big Thank You to Freedmen Project for making this available and all who see to it that the information is here for us, and FREE.

By sending it to everyone it means alot of us have to spend a great deal of time deleting. I'd suggest then that you pay close attention to the subject line, delete what you DON'T want to read and hope to God that further along in your research that you don't need the information! As for myself, I would like to see this kind of information on ALL the listings I belong to, you never know when you will be able to use it. I have a special file that is set up in aol just for emails to be read later. Maybe you should do that also and cut down on your reading time.

I applaud the person who took so much time to put this info on the web. I realize the work it took. Betty Meischen Myrt Townsend wrote: >Well said, User920035!
