CARNAHAN BULLETIN
March 1, 2000
============================
The following query from Bobby V. Carnahan is one which we should all
respond to, by checking our records for any information about the Early
Period and these ancestors about whom we have many questions remaining.
Please reply directly to Bobby V. Carnahan <bcrnhn(a)juno.com>, but include a
"Cc:" to me and to Phil Carnahan <pcarna(a)pacific.net>
Thanks,

Subject: Query
From: Bobby V Carnahan <bcrnhn(a)juno.com>
Below, I have listed some of our early Carnahans and I ask each of you to
go through this list and tell me who you think their parents are, if you
have data on them, and your reasons for believing they are the parents, etc.
By doing this, it will help us out in trying to determine who the parents
are of these Carnahans that are not positively identified at the present time.
This information will be shared with Phil and Norman and any others that
desire to know the results.
Also, if you have queries of your own like this, we can probably expand the
list of "Most Wanted" ancestors, and help each other out.
Many thanks,
Bob Carnahan
