Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
I have access to the Register online and was not able to locate Vol. 151, pages 31-37. What year and article are you trying to locate?
Last year sometime, a person on this List mentioned they had once received a message from someone in England regarding being heir to an ancestral Chaffee estate. It was in response to discussion about someone buying the Chaffee genealogy in a bookshop in Burlington, Vt
Does that person have a clue regarding the identity of Thomas Chaffee's ancestors? .I just reviewed some of the Chaffee archive messages and could not locate the messages. Wish I had paid more attention at the time and have just recently realized the significance of that message.
Would love to have that person reply to this message.
