Carter, Wallace & Hardin Cousins;
With the arrival of Fall 2006, our lists [CARTER / WALLACE / HARDIN]
celebrate their 10th Anniversary!!!!!!!!!! I believe a round of applause
and congratulations is due to you all, for if it were not for your support
and participation, our lists would not have survived this long!
Originally born out of brain storming and "what if's", these lists were
formed with the help, input and assistance of two (2) cousins in particular:
Larry R. Wallace and Carolyn (Wallace) Chilton
To them, I owe a great debt of gratitude! "Thank You!"
Originally, these lists were hosted at the University of Indiana Listserve
computers, with the assistance of Larry Stephens, our hopes became reality
in the Fall of 1996. Unfortunately, several months later (I can't remember
the exact month, but early 1997) the University of Indiana computer system
was the victim of a major SPAM attack, which forced the University
administration to ask all of the genealogy lists to find another home.
After being left, almost homeless, Dr. Brian Leverich and Karen Isaacson, of
RootsWeb came to the rescue and offered a home for our lists. Not all of
the genealogy lists formerly housed at the University of Indiana moved to
the new home, however after looking at the options available, we opted to
move to Rootsweb and have been happy ever since.
Since our humble beginnings with 3 members (myself, Larry & Carolyn) our
lists have grown to:
CARTER = 481 subscribed members
HARDIN - 287 subscribed members
WALLACE = 523 subscribed members
Numbers go up and sometimes go down, but generally, our group has grown over
the years.
Again, give yourselves a big hand of applause and a grateful Thank You from
me!
Regards,
Chuck Carter
