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
Cliburn Listers this may help to understand whats
going
on in simple terms. This is from Joan from another
list.

I have just recently found my wife's connection to the Cliburn Family,
including finding my wife is a descendant of George R Cliburn (1770
-1840+) and Emily Meador(1776-1850+). There is considerable information
on this family on the web but not all is consistent. Spelling of the
last name is a problem and include Clayborn, Claibourn, Clyborne,
Claibourne, Cliborn, Cliburn, Cliborne.
In response to Chris Cliburn it may be that George's father was Jonas
Cliburn/Claiborne (1736-1775) who married (about 1769) Elizabeth
Robertson (1740-c1810) after the death her husband John Cliburn who was
Jonas's brother (some say) or other relation. Jones's first wife
appears to have been Edith (Edy) Folks. Besides George other children
of Jonas and Elizabeth appear to be Elizabeth and Phoebe. Children of
Jonas and Edith: Leonard B, Jonas, Daniel, Ann, Mary, and Margaret. If
this is true there appears to be a link back to William Claiborne, born
1600 in Kent, England, and a very early settler of Virginia/Maryland who
is much written about.
I have not performed any independent research to confirm this and I'm
not sure where to start.
I would appreciate comments.
