News from the CHADBOURNE FAMILY ASSOCIATION
You received this because of electing to "participate" in the
Chadbourne-List at
Rootsweb.com or at the former Chadbourne website at
"koz". Please reply privately to me, tedchad (
at*)maine.rr.com by
e-mail, if you wish to be deleted from this mailing List, or to change
your information under "Participants" section - which is static at the
new website. (Please delete any possible full quoteback of this
message, however.)
http://www.chadbourne.org has replaced the FORMER:
http://mainetoday.koz.com/maine/cfa for the CFA website.
Change-over and updating are NOT complete, but:
The site now includes indices for all names in the book + complete
text for the first four generations, for easy searches by name or place.
Generations 5 and 6 are there, but password protected for active members
(current since July 1 on the $10 per year dues).
(That password will first be announced at this weekend's reunion.
Please don't ask for it by a reply to this List. (If it later were sent
to the List (some List readers are non-members), it would be changed and
its replacement not available to the one who posted it.
The new CD, of course, has much more of all types of information that at
the website, which does include CD ordering details.)
A tribute to our recently deceased Genealogist, Elaine C. Bacon may
presently be found ONLY at
http://www.kmrco.com/chadbourne/ElaineCB.html
or by scrolling down on the home page of an alternate Chadbourne
website,
http://www.krmco.com/chadbourne/. This site, generously
contributed and hosted by Kay Ritter is more visually attractive but is
not fully de-bugged and omits some elements of the alternate site
http://communities/mainetoday.com, to whose "develop" alias
www.chadbourne.org is presently re-directed. During September it went
to Kay's site, and for several days in early October it could not find
us do to a programming error at MaineToday.
A TUTORIAL on using the four programs on the our acclaimed CD-2000, an
updated "The Chadbourne Family in America: A Genealogy" will be given
this Saturday at 4 PM at the Old Berwick Historical Society in South
Berwick, following a joint meeting with SPENCER AND GOODWIN family
members at 2 PM in the same place. We then adjourn to the Salmon Falls
Country Club in Hollis for a dutch treat supper and the next day's
program including Historian Joseph Wm. Pepperrell Frost with a detailed
ca. 1670 British map of the Piscataqua River basin from Portsmouth to
North Berwick.
If you've not RESERVEd yet, please contact promptly Reunion Chair Arlene
Verity <avcwdancer (at*) mediaone.net> whose phone and fax share the
SE Mass. number 781-294-8603.
* You need to edit e-mail addresses which omit the customary connector
of username to ISP name. (This is hoped to be gain some protection from
programs that try to "harvest" e-mail addresses found online.)
We look forward to seeing you. Thanks, ~Ted Chadbourne MORE:

1. FALL FOLIAGE GUIDE
The state says the foliage colors across the state are at their peak -
with the southern coast being the exception. That region is a little
slower to change. But don't worry about where the peak is located. If
you wander around the state this week, you are still going to see
stunning scenery. Source:

2, MAINE TURNPIKE All widening construction involving lane closures
will be set aside and all lanes will be open from Portland south on
Friday and throughout the weekend. To accommodate weekend traffic there
will be no lane closures in the widening project area from Friday
through Sunday.
This schedule of lane closures is subject to change due to weather
conditions, traffic incidents or other unanticipated events. For more
specific information, check out the travel forecast at the Maine
Turnpike Authority's web site.
