Good Afternoon Everyone,
Well... here we are... one week before Christmas. So I imagine this will be
the last list update for the year 2003.
First of all, some updated information about the list. As of today, the
Clark-IL list has 22 subscribers to the regular version and 15subscribers to the
digest version.
I am sure that all of you are busy getting ready for Christmas but.... you
might enjoy giving this site a try when you have time. It is a Surname
Thesaurus and will create a list of additional spellings for various surnames. Just
type in your surname of interest and then look at all the other suggested
spellings. Some are quite creative.

And.. as a year end comment. As we each work on our various lines, we
sometimes get caught up in finding names, dates, and locations. Maybe here at
Christmas time we might want to pause and remember that those names and dates were
real people. All of whom impacted our lives in some way. That makes each and
every one of them special to us and our children.
AND.... finally.....
I would like to wish each of you the best of the season and hope that you and
your families are able to share lots of wonderful laughter, hugs, and
memories with each other.
Merry Christmas,
Emma Cronin
