Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
To the above Lists:
Since my name is mentioned in the following I have to answer to the
accusation.
The only wrong I did was not to notice I was replying to a list and not an
individual namely Erica Clyburn.
I never stated that James and Ephraim were the same only that as far as I
knew they could be. Also the info about Ephraim I obtained from a book "The
King's Rangers" by Edward J. Cashin. I did not get that information from
anyone else. Maybe Peggy should read it before she makes the allegations.
Over the years we have shared some information but not this .
