Hello List Admin and Members,
I would just like to take the time to THANK all of you for
your wonderful post. Wether good or bad, all of your opinions count to me.
I
have many list to still work on and I learn from what you all teach me.
I am a geneologist with info that has not yet reached the web,
and my intention was to get it to all of you in FREE GENEOLOGY.
My intention was also to get it into the ROOTSWEB archives. Rootsweb has
been
a tool for geneologist , that allows us to share and have the means to
connect our family's freely. I owe them alot. And I also owe every poster
who
has taken time to post.
I want you all to know that I plan on answering each and every post that
was
sent to me, asking me questions and all of that sort of stuff.
I exspecially want to thank all of you LIST ADMINISTRATORS who have allowed
the info to reach the Rootsweb archives. It will be there for generations
to
come. There is so much more coming out of Washington DC about the FREEDMEN.
It has been long overdue. I remember back before Ex President Clinton left
office and he made the statement that the FREEDMEN RECORDS needed to be
indexed and taken care of.
Well as a young Freedmen researcher, I have had some of the best folks to
work with from Washingtion .
I have been told that there is much more to come, at a later date.
Last but not least, my work on your list at this time is
complete, so please if you have any questions, and cannot reach me on the
list. please contact me at BrightStar9136(a)aol.com. I thank you all for your
patience .
