Dear Pat and NO-Carter Listers,
I will be glad to make a list here if you can mention sometime if you
are my sister Pat or brother Pat. ;>)) I will introduce myself in a future
memo. This is just a brief listing so if you need further explanations
it could become detailed. (I couldn't list it all without browsing so that
is why I'm doing this.)
If anyone logs into
Ancestry.com, you can check out a few things for
free like World coverage of your surname. It is advertisement for business.
I know I am hooked for 3 month at $99 and want to make the best of it.
Sincerely,
SharonCL
