Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Becky,
I couldn't have said it better myself! I personally haven't gotten
back far enough to connect to any area other than Montana, and subdivbiding
the list would just mean that those who are fairly new to this have to look
in several little places rather than one big archive. Call me lazy, but for
anyone interested in finding NEW connections should keep in mind that those
who are just starting out won't know that 300 years ago their ancestors
lived in say Kentucky and not in Montana!
Sincerely,
Debi Albright

Looking to pierce my brick wall. Jesse CARTER married Cynthia HUTSON in
Newton Co., Ga on July 18, 1849. She was daughter of Archibald Hutson and
?. He was son of ????.
Can anyone help remove these question marks?

I have a copy of a Bible record showing that John's mother was Sarah
Fair (1752-1829), and have reason to believe that his father
may have been Nathaniel Carter. If anyone has any information on any of
these folks, please let me know.

Greetings
I have been following this list for a while and would like to know if anyone
has any information or links to CARTER's in South Africa.
My Great Grandfather Herbert CARTER b. d. m. Johanna JOUBERT. They had two
children Herbert James CARTER b. d. 13 Oct 1974 Free State, South Africa and
Laura CARTER.
Regards
Gordon
Maybe you should place querries where you know your CARTERs went. I
have found extremely valuable info on this list and continue to. Your
problem has nothing to do with volume...you just have to keep looking
until someone posts what you are looking for. Many families split up
and different family members went to many different states. You can't
complain about the list just because you are not finding your CARTERs
right away...it takes time and lots of reading and lots of deleting.
Sometimes if I see a querry and it isn't my line, if I have that info
somewhere I will send it to the person...I keep all of my research even
if I find I can't use it.
Good luck, Cynthia

The CARTERs from VA & PA also seemed to go frequently to the south...SC
& NC.

You really can't sub divide because many CARTERs migrated through all of
these states & more! So they are actually the same family...mine came
from Eng>PA>VA>SC>GA>AL>TX.

John Carter was born in 1782 InScarsborough, Cumberland, Maine...he married
Hannah Libby Knight.....she apparently migrated west and he remained in
Maine....where he died in 1852....Their daughter Eliza Ann married James
Chauncey SNOW in 1838 and together they migrated west. I am interested in
finding the father of John and any family stories available.....Hannah was
remarried before the death of John. These are direct ancestors and any help
given will be greatly appreciated. Annie
What part of England did they live. I have some from the Lancashire
area
Bef 1850. Maybe I can help.

SUGGESTED GUIDELINES to HELP GET ANSWERS
by Tim Carter
If I am going to be a writer and try to get your attention so that you will
help me, I must be courteous to you; I must be thoughtful enough to present
materials in such a manner as to get and keep your attention; I must write
my material in a way that makes it fast, easy, and pleasant
to read. With these thoughts in mind, consider that the following are NOT
RULES, but they are SUGGESTED GUIDELINES for use by genealogy researchers.
Also, if you are a member/user on a list which has an owner or moderator
who specifies how to post to that particular list, please, try to post to
that list in accordance with his/her instructions.
1) What are you talking about? What is your Subject?
2) Are you shouting at the reader?
3-7) Typing names so they are easy to read.
8) Where and How to Reply.
9-10) Flaming.
11) Are you less considerate and more disrespectful
than the flamer? than the sympathizers?
12) You want to reply, but, Are You Ready?
1) Do you really want me to read your message? Many users of the lists
use the subject line to speed up their search. Messages with blank subject
lines are deleted in bulk before any reading is attempted. Both the sender
and the receiver have "lost" when a connection they have for each other is
not made because of a subject omitted.
2) Generally, type everything in lower case (small) letters. Typing
everything in ALL CAPS is considered SHOUTING AT THE READER.
3) ALWAYS type SURNAMES in upper case (CAPITAL) letters.
4) When listing SURNAMES only, enter a comma and two spaces between the
names. This makes for faster, easier reading:
CARTER, DELOACH, KIRBY, LEE, PEDRON (PLEASE, do not space between
letters of the name, and do not use special characters within a name)
5) DO NOT use the asterisk * or the slash / as a separator of SURNAMES.
Use this same rule for applying other special characters in your writings.
This is hard on the eyes, and some of us won't read it. Therefore, you and
I might miss a perfect opportunity to find a connection to one of the names
we are both researching.
6) Generally, type names as follows:
SURNAME, First Second Third "Nickname" Title (Although it won't always work
out this way, try to make it a standard way of writing names.) Example:
CARTER, Elisha Joseph Goodwin "Joe" Rev
7) When listing SURNAMES with locations, try to make the listings as
columns if possible. At least enter some spaces to make for easier, faster
reading:
CARTER > NC, SC, MS, AR LEE > NC, SC, TN, AR
JONES > FL, AL, TN, GA OWENS > NC, GA, LA
KIRBY > AR WOOD > TN,AR
Realize that the progression of states is not meant to be alphabetical, but
represents the general movement (or migration) of the family or individual
being researched, and are the locations being searched.
8) When you reply (respond) to a message received on a list, PLEASE, be
aware of where your reply is going "before you send it.". Some of the
lists are set up so the REPLY automatically returns your message to the
list. Other lists automatically return your replies to the originator of the
message. AGAIN, PLEASE double check the return address where you are
sending the answer to that post. A BIG THANK YOU for your help on this.
9) Please, do not flame someone (put them down rather rudely) for something
they have done. The individual may be new and did not realize what was
correct and proper. Or, an individual can be in a hurry and just do things
wrong. (Personally, I do not wish to reduce <degrade> myself to
the low level of flaming someone. I have been flamed and know how bad it
made me feel, even though I had not intended to hurt or upset anyone.)
Consider that in most instances the act is not on purpose, but accidental.
If you must reply, be courteous, polite, and positive and send
them a private note.
10) Above all, DO NOT flame someone publicly on one of the lists. It is
bad manners on the part of the person doing the flaming, and shows
disrespect toward all other members of the list. (They do not want to hear
the flamer's whining about what someone has supposedly done to the flamer
or to them. That is why there are always so many rude, ill-natured replies
afterwards.)
11) Do you reply to the flamer, and send it to the list? Then, you have
been more disrespectful to fellow list members than was the flamer. You
have become a part of the continuing nuisance to the list. Does someone
have a loss, and accidentally post it to the list? Are you one of the
sympathizers that also post your condolences to the list? You have become
a part of the continuing nuisance to the list. Are you one of those that
posts to the list in anger or dismay, trying to get the sympathizers to
stop posting? You have added fuel to the fire - you helped increase the
problem. Please stop and think before posting ANY OFF SUBJECT REPLY to a
list.
12) Do you really want to flame someone? Go look in the mirror. That
person you are looking at knows exactly how you feel and what you are
thinking. Therefore, that person knows exactly how to take what you are
saying. Furthermore, if that person in the mirror smiles at you, you are
going to have to smile back. And, if you smile at the person in the mirror
and that person in the mirror does not smile back at you, you are not ready
to write to anyone yet.
Now, let's work together and find some genealogy answers.
Thank you.

Cousins,
What must I do to get certain List Etiquitte across to everyone???????
When you send a message, STATE YOUR PURPOSE, etc in the Subject line!
I am not going to single out any one particular person, because it seems
like everyone has been caught one time or another in "piggy backing" off
another message with a "totally unrelated" subject!
I sent a message earlier this date regarding the message string that had
been circulating about splitting up the list. I check my messages later
today and find what looks like a reply to my message, only to read it and
find that it's a request for information!
One more time I'm going to send the list a copy of the "SUGGESTED
GUIDELINES" our cousin, Tim Carter wrote a few years ago. I find those
suggestions very useful and meaningful at times like this. Please
remember, if you are going to post a message, don't just "click" the reply
to button without changing the subject line! Clicking the reply to copies
over the old subject and does not address the new thought or idea.
This is not the first time this has been addressed to the group, so please
try and remember.
Thank you,
Charles E. Carter

Cousins,
First of all, I wanted to let everyone know that I'm back from my short trip.
Secondly, I scrolled through the message strings while I was away, and
found there was discussion regarding dividing this list.
Let me state that this list will not be divided. Enough time and energy
spent on the subject!

Hi Leland,
Do you know if your John Carter (# v., son of 1. Edward Carter) had any

Thanks,
