Subject: [CHAFFEE] Greetings from your list admintrator
Hello List Members!
My name is Shirley Fergus. I am the list owner for the LAYCOCK,WINGO,
GUTLICK, KUNKLE , CHAFFEE and ORGEL rootsweb lists.
This list has been very quiet and I would like to ask you to please post
your lineage so that we can liven up the list. Who knows you may have a
cousin on this list you never knew just waiting to hear from you! Or
someone
else may just have the information you are looking for, on that long
long
loooong lost relative that just won't seem to surface out of the old wood
work.
Please make sure to put the ancestors name in the subject line and not
just
the last name if you are wanting to try and find a specific person.
If you find information through your travels to court houses, census,
cemeteries or even right here on the net in cyber space, and even if it
doesn't pertain to your line, maybe you could help us out and post it
here,
as that information could be beneficial to someone else that just
hasn't
tripped over it yet.
REMEMBER: To always cite the source of the information you post, because
your post will be archived here at rootsweb.
As more and more people join the list and we know they will, it helps to
have everyone's information listed so that say a year from now that
"cousin"
can come back to you if they have not joined already.
Thanks so much for all your help and for your desire to find your
ancestors.
We all need to know from where it is we came and how we have come to
be in
the place we are today.
If you have any questions, comments, or information that you feel I may be
able to help you with...please feel free to e-mail me and I will return
your
post as soon as possible.
Thanks once again,
Shirley Fergus (ORGEL)
List Owner
