Hi, Bob (and other cousins of whatever spelling persuasion ;-)
Welcome! I'm glad you're intrigued with our project. Colleen, Connie and
I have been hammering away at something we're nearly ready to present to
the list, and putting together some resources and ideas. We hope the first
offering is something that will both intrigue and relieve the minds of all
our kinfolk here. Above all, we don't want to alienate anyone, or make
anyone think we're going to take the results of their hard-earned research
to become filthy rich publishing it without their permission. And... but
I'd better not get ahead of our "announcement" ... Stay tuned!!
Cheers,
Katherine

Elam Cashion is in the 1850 census of Giles County, Tn. He is supposedly
the son of Pleasant Jackson and Cynthia Almerry Cashon
(David,William,James). Census read
Elam b. abt. 1803 NC, Delithias b. abt. 1810 NC, James abt. 1826,
Elizabeth abt. 1834, Martha abt. 1836, Virgilla abt. 1841, Idabella abt.
1843, margaret abt. 1845, Ellen abt. 1847. Does anyone have any more
information about this family?
Also, I made a mistake in my files. I do not find David Cashon in
Iredell census for 1810.
Also, is anyone researching Martin Cashon son of David and martha mann?

Here's the rest of it.
>No stories of the family that I may have collected from other sources can

If you want to repeat the story verbatim, in the original words, yes you
need to get the author's permission. However, if you paraphrase it or
retell it in your own words, then you are the author. Remember that it is
the *expression* that is protected, not the information itself. However,
in the case of family history, it might be important to record an
informant's exact words. It's really not a big deal to get someone's
permission as long as they understand you are not trying to rip them off.
Since this is not a for-profit project, most people would probably not have
a problem giving us permission to publish their stories. Of course, if
it's a case of a story you collected years ago, and the author is no longer
around, it may be necessary to rethink that.
Another complication is that if someone simply tells you a story and you
are the one who puts it down in writing, then YOU are the author. Under
the copyright law, only things that are somehow put into tangible form
(written on paper, recorded on a hard disk, etc.) are considered
copyrighted material, and the person who puts it into permanent form is the
author. Copyrights are considered (under current law) to become effective
automatically once that occurs, but if you plan to sue someone for
copyright violation, you must first register your copyright with the
Library of Congress' Copyright Office.
One
>other question. A group doing research - does the research belong to all
>of them, or individual research belong to the one in that group that
>developed it?
In the case of a collaboration, the best way to handle it is to have a
contract that specifies to whom the copyrights belong. There are
provisions in the law for such things, but it's pretty complicated, and a
contract (which can be simply a signed agreement between the interested
parties) would help clarify the intent of the participants.
All this is really a lot more intense than it has to be -- the only reason
we need to worry about it is to make sure we don't violate someone's
rights. I seriously doubt any of us would sue the other over a project
that doesn't have a lot of money involved, and the law is mostly written
with the idea in mind that someone will refer to it in the course of a
lawsuit. It's important to understand what the law says, to avoid breaking
it, but I don't think we need to get all wound up about it. Good
genealogical practices, ethics and the law are pretty much in agreement
about how to respect other people's research and materials -- you don't
take what isn't yours without permission from the owner, and you give
credit where credit is due. As long as we do that, we should be fine.
Cheers,
Katherine

That's basically correct. You're especially correct about the fact that
public records are not protected by copyright in the US, but are in the
public domain. So, deed records, birth, marriage & death records, recorded
wills, etc. are all fair game.

We can footnote a reference - for instance:

No stories of the family that I may have collected from other sources can

other question. A group doing research - does the research belong to all
of them, or individual research belong to the one in that group that

Good idea on the rootsweb donation.

Precisely! Except the "dumb" part -- it's a perfectly valid question, and
I'm glad you brought it up. Documents, maps, pictures of people and
places, family tree charts... you name it! I'm really glad the reaction to
this idea is so positive. It's going to be a lot of work, but a lot of
fun, too. And the results should be something we're all very proud to
have. I expect this work will have an honored place in libraries with
family history collections as well as researchers' bookshelves. (Or should
I say media shelves?)

Cousins,
As a publisher, one of my key concerns is to make sure copyrights are all
in order. As we get started on this project, we need to emphasize that we
will not use any material without obtaining the author's permission first.
While facts themselves are not copyrightable, the expression of facts is
protected by law, and we have no wish to violate anyone's rights. One of
the things we will put in the website (or portion of a website) that will
be devoted to this project is a form for contributors to sign, granting
this team the right to publish their contributions on this disc and in any
books that are derived from it, but also stating that the copyright remains
the property of the author. This is in accordance with the current US
Copyright Code, and standard publishing practices.
Cheers,
Katherine

This is a dream come true. You ladies have all the talent but count me
in in doing any thing I can to help. What a labor of love. And I
especially like the idea that it can be added to and corrected and made
available in more than one form. And with pictures! I second the
nomination of Connie and Colleen for the editors.
Connie, what drew you to family history - I think you have already
answered part of that by telling us about your profession and that you
enjoy the hunt, but what made you begin the family search. And it has
always amazed me how bits and pieces of something pertaining to the
family will jump up out of the most uexpected places to add to our
knowledge. I'm so glad your ggg grandfather ws exchanged - 65 days in
that hell hole must have seemed a life time.
Will we be able to put in the handwritten courthouse copies of records
like James and Sarah's wills? Duh, that was dumb, if we can do pictures
we can do the copies.

This is great! Connie & Colleen, I'm so glad you have all that experience
and resources, and it sounds like you're also willing to do some serious
work on this, as well as understand just what a commitment it will require.
I also have a CD-R disc printer (and a new one on order), as well as a disc
duplicator with an autoloader, for burning a considerable number of discs
unattended. If you're interested in this technology, have a look at my
(business) website at http://www.cd-info.com, where I'm in the process of
publishing a series of articles and reviews on the topic. This year I've
had eval copies of most of the major autoloaders on the market to play with
-- lots of fun!
One of the reasons I offered to be "publisher" of this disc is that not
only do we have the technology, but my company has a distribution
capability as well as online ordering system under my control. We are also
getting ready to launch a new packaging product that is tailor made for CD
publishing on demand. Designing, creating and manufacturing the
publication is only one aspect of publishing, as Connie is aware. What
will really take the most effort is to create the first disc -- writing and
editing the content, then putting it into a coherent form for access off
the disc, or printing on paper. The biggest advantages of publishing on
CD-R are that not only will the content be searchable, but also it is much
less expensive than paper publishing. Plus, we can make the work do double
duty by using the same content for paper publications if anyone wants it in
that form.
It sounds like we have ample resources at hand here. I suggest we decide
who's going to be the editor (perhaps with a co-editor), and then perhaps
set up a website with an ftp dropbox where we can submit files that are too
big for email. I can do the latter, and suggest Connie and Colleen be
co-editors. Connie apparently has the software tools to do the disc design
as well as some copy editing, so maybe she should be designated "prepress
editor" and Colleen as "copy editor". If these ladies will produce the
master disc, I can have it duplicated and distributed, and can provide a
workspace on the net. Everybody should get busy writing articles and
collecting pictures, etc. to contribute. I suggest we sell these discs to
list members at cost, and to others for a small markup, with profits to go
to Rootsweb as a donation. Bare costs (including duplication, packaging
and distribution) would probably come to about $5/disc, although it's
really too soon to tell.
By the way, one of the joys of on-demand publishing is that if we decide
some of the info is wrong, or want to add more, updates can be done without
a lot of extra trouble & money invested.
Cheers,
Katherine

Cousins,
I also have equipment and do CD-Rom publishing for our company catalogs. I
have most photo-editing and page-layout software packages, CD-Rom burners
and even a CD-Rom printer which prints the label and cover art directly on
the burned CD. I have been in one form or another of journalism and editing
for most of my life. Most of it has been as researcher, digester, editor,
copywriter. One interesting, but strange, twist to my story happened this
week. Many years ago, I worked as a researcher for David L. Wolper, producer
of documentaries and docu-dramas. The last project I teamed on for him was
"The Andersonville Trial". Perhaps some of you remember it being televised.
Last week I discovered that one of my ggg grandfathers, George Nathaniel
Dennis, was a survivor of that prison. He was there 65 days before being
exchanged and returned to Illinois to re-join his regiment. At the time I
spent days reviewing prisoner lists and other camp documents, I did not even
know the name of this ancestor. Isn't life interesting?
This is too big a project to bite off alone, but I think that a pooled
talent endeavor could be very exciting.
Genealogy is new to me and I have found it a perfect counterbalance to my
"day job" as a product development and new project manager for an
electronics company. My job involves data gathering, analysis and
presentation. Some people say genealogy is more of the same, but they don't
understand the challenge and rewards.
Shall we explore this further? I am ready to help with whatever is needed. I
will be going to Salt Lake City the week before Thanksgiving in order to do
research. My eldest son lives there and I hope to get him "hooked" during
that visit so I will have a resident researcher able to do legwork for me

The idea of a collective Cashion study done by the numerous cousin we
have met over the internet would be a great idea especially offered as a
study tool to help not just family historians who are new to genealogy,
but some of us who have been playing with this hobby for many years. It
seems like an overwhelming task for one person, but collectively it could
be an excellent project and I would enjoy working with ya'll.
Connie, Diana has answered your question of where you can get a copy of
Andrea's papers. Some cousins have told me that his work is also in some
libraries so you might check there as well. It is fascinating reading as
he tells the entire story of his search and most of his references can be
checked. I only have the Cashion pages of SOME EARLY SETTLERS: LINCOLN
COUNTY, TENNESSEE by Hugh L. and Ida Greenshaw Taylor, but I believe this
is a book that also should be available in libraries, if not yours, then
you might ask your librarian if she can find it and bring it in for your
research. Another cousin sent me the Ewell Grundy Cashion papers and I
don't know how he got them but they deal with the North Carolina branch
of the Cashions an appear to be descended from Joel who was in North
Carolina as opposed to Joel who stayed in Virginia. I understand tht a
new book is out on the Worsham/Washam line as well, but have only seen
reference to it and don't know how much the Cashions are presented (this
probably would include Dicey Cashion (sister to Burrell) Worsham's line)
Another really great researcher was Urple Cashion Taylor. She was from
the James and Ann line through son Joel and her family remained in
Chesterfield County, Virginia and Urple did family research most of her
life. At least some of her papers are in the Historical Society in
Chesterfield County and I have been very fortunate to see many those
papers thanks to her cousin, John Cashion. Some of this family still live
on the orginal Cashion land grant as did Urple until her death.
The Nash papers are also in the LDS files and deal mostly with David
Cashon's line.
Those are the only Cashion studies that I know exist. Hopefully, Robert
will be able to give you others.
Katherine, where do you find the time? I am always amazed at how much
you and Colleen are doing and still find time for family history. As
with Diana who I know is constantly sharing her energies.
Also, if you would like a copy of my files or any part of them (to be
taken with a grain of salt), which include some notations from L. Andrea
and source material, my email is crandall(a)airmail.net or
valette(a)juno.com
Also I meant to give this address to Colleen the other day and think I
forgot. This is a site dealing with a genealogist who's papers have
proven to be frauds.
http://www.linkline.com/personal/xymox/fraud/fraud223.htm
Cashion isn't listed, but some of your other lines maybe and you'll know
to keep an eye out.
Also I made reference to a site Colleen had sent me for DAR records. It
is:
http://www.ancestry.com/ancestry/search/3174.htm
I've had fun searching this site but haven't come up with anything on our
line under the DAR
It's nice to see activity on our Cashion rootweb and I hope we'll
continue to share information. But most importantly the opposite
opinions Robert and I have been shooting around is not a take sides
issue, as Robert said we are all of the same line and working together to
share ideas, information and theories is the best way to lay the
foundtion for our family history. Later cousin, Valette

Colleen,
Wonderful! If you put it together, I can help by publishing it on CD-ROM,
so it's electronically searchable. I have a CD-R duplicator and disc
printer, so the products would be pro-quality, and by using a
print-on-demand paradigm, we could keep the costs low, and I have the
capability of taking online credit card orders as well. I'm working on a
similar project with another of my family groups, the Pennington Research
Association. Someone else is doing the authoring and producing the master
disc, which I'll duplicate for them to sell through their website &
publications.
If you can deliver the files in electronic format (word processor files are
fine), I can publish them with Adobe FrameMaker so the output could be
either Acrobat files (for CD-ROM or Web) or photo-ready prepress for print
publishing. I'm even working with another company who do paper print on
demand, so for those who want hardcopy we could produce the publication in
a quite polished form, with perfectbound covers (like a paperback book, not
a combed-binder like you'd get from Kinko's).
Cheers,
Katherine

Connie Jones makes some very good points in her posting to the CASHION
mailing list. I, too, am a fairly new researcher of this fascinating line
and I would like to see these reports too -- and know where to find other
information.
Is someone writing a book about this line that would include all information
and sources?
I gladly volunteer to put this together! I am a retired newspaper editor and
am doing freelance writing now. I have a few books edited under my belt too.
Connie also thanked those that have blazed the CASHION genealogical trail
before us -- undoubtedly the best researchers around! I add my kudos!
