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
Cousins,
Just FYI
Two people have just been dropped from this email list due to excessive bounces. This is an automatic action taken by the software that runs our list. If you know either of the two people in the cc list above, you might contact them and see if there is something wrong and if they want to re-subscribe to the list.
Here is the bounce policy that rootsweb uses:
"Each subscriber is assigned a bounce score. Whenever Mailman receives a bounce from a list member, that member's score is increased. Hard bounces (fatal errors) increase the score by 1, while soft bounces (temporary errors) increase the score by 0.5. For instance, a "hard" bounce can occur when Mailman receives error indicating the email address it tried to send to no longer exists. A "soft" bounce can occur when Mailman receives an error message indicating the inbox of the email address it tried to mail to is full"
The bounce score threshold for our list is set at 5.
This means that 10 bounces due to a full mailbox will cause you to be unsubscribed, as will 5 bounces saying there is no recipient by that name.
Tom Cloud
The last email of the immigrants -- and now this about Clouds born in other countries -- is of interest to me in light of the DNA Project and our need to find other Clouds so that we can begin to sort out the few lines that don't appear to be connected to that of William Cloud b. 1621.
We are looking for Clouds who came to America after William ... here is what I found looking at Heritage Quest census:
(If anyone wants a copy of any of these censuses, let me know and I will make a copy and email it to you.)
(There were other countries -- Russia, Spain, for example .... and probably others I didn't look for.)

CastleGarden.org offers free access to a database of information on 10 million immigrants from 1830 through 1892 (though the search box says 1913). "From 1855 to 1890, the Castle was America's first official immigration center...". This was prior to the opening of Ellis Island.
http://www.castlegarden.org/
I found these Cloud families (tab delimited table) -- apparently they are all immigrants and not people returning from a trip:
First name Last name Occupation Age Sex day mon year dob Origin Ship
Alexand Cloud Mariner, Marine 28 M 5 Jan 1835 1807 England Julian
Blu Cloud Laborer 16 M 7 Apr 1851 1835 Great Britain Devonshire
Ann Jane Cloud Unknown 20 F 30 Nov 1852 1832 Ireland Joseph Walker
Mary Cloud Unknown 36 F 24 Nov 1852 1816 England Petersburg
H.C. Cloud Gentleman 30 M 17 Sep 1877 1847 USA Idaho
Jos. Cloud Farmer 22 M 14 May 1880 1858 Germany Utopia
Arthur Cloud Butcher 25 M 7 Mar 1882 1857 England Rotterdam
Arthur Cloud Infant 9 m M 7 Mar 1882 1881 England Rotterdam
Elizabeth Cloud None 23 F 7 Mar 1882 1859 England Rotterdam
Master Cloud Child, Youngster 1 M 27 Sep 1883 1882 England Greece
Mr. F. Cloud Gentleman 51 M 27 Sep 1883 1832 England Greece
Mrs. Cloud Wife 49 F 27 Sep 1883 1834 England Greece
Marg. Cloud Unknown 22 F 21 Mar 1889 1868 Germany Belgenland
Henri Cloud Farmer 25 M 30 Apr 1894 1869 France La Bourgogne
I separated the month, day and year into columns and added a column for estimated date of birth. The table is sorted by date of arrival.
Here are their names and estimated dob -- sorted on name:
First name dob
Alexand 1807
Ann Jane 1832
Arthur 1857
Arthur 1881
Blu 1835
Elizabeth 1859
Mr. F. 1832
H.C. 1847
Henri 1869
Jos. 1858
Marg. 1868
Mary 1816
Master 1882
Mrs. 1834
Below are those that arrived together, assuming they are family members.
Mar. 7, 1882, Joseph (22, farmer) arrived from England on the ship Rotterdam ... along with Arthur (25, butcher), Elizabeth (23) and Arthur (infant, 9 mos).
Another group (family ?) arrived in 1883 from England on the ship Greece -- Mr. F. (gentleman, 51), Mrs. (49) and Master (1). Apparently this family didn't want to give their names.
Out of 14 from 1835 through 1894, 10 were from England/GB, one was from Ireland, one from Germany and one from France. One was from the U.S.
I've not been studying these people -- someone just sent me the link and I looked and then made this email.
Do we know who these people are?

I ditto what Ellen has said below. You guys have been awesome. I know I
haven't done much in the last few years. But you guys, wow. All the work and
dedication has been admirable. I suspect we have a tendency to take it for
granted and just imagine you will always be there.

I don't know what the apology is for....but I sure agree as far as applause
to Kenny and Tom Cloud. This must qualify as life's work for both of them,
for I don't see how they have much time for anything else....all the time
and effort they put in......they both deserve all kinds of gratitude for
what they do and have done for us Cloud researchers. Also a great big thank
you for all who have contributed to their efforts.
A great big thanks!

Since my database will no longer be available to others, I really cant
see adding anything just for the sake of it. I doubt the Cloud Family Assoc
would be interested in what my data contains, so you might want to contact
them and pass your info on to them. Thanks for the offer though, just seems
usless to go thru the motions.

New dna results have been returned and are reflected on our dna website:
http://mykindred.com/cloud/dna/results/cdnareport.php
kit 70850 is an exact match (at 37 markers) to a fourth cousin, kit 37123.
You can see my work-in-progress on this (i.e. it's not linked from the dna site)
http://mykindred.com/cloud/dna/results/pedchart.php
This last page is a preliminary work-in-progress -- the updated results for kit 70850 have NOT been added to this chart.
The goal is to get enough data from each sub-branch to that we can identify those sub-branches' dna "signature". We can then work back further in our ancestry and identify the "signature" for the older branching points until we finally identify the dna markers or signature for our oldest known ancestor.
We have had excellent results at identifying the dna signatures of the sub-lines of Joseph Cloud and for "my" Jeremiah Cloud.
Now we need to work on the branches from the "main line" of William the immigrant.
We need more data on the sub-branches of those lines so that we can identify their unique dna signatures.
The goal is for us to
1 - verify the lineages we already have
2 - find out where the "lost" lines fit into the main line
So -- if you know anyone from those "main" lines from the chart at
http://mykindred.com/cloud/dna/results/pedchart.php
... this lines at the top ...
Please let me know! Encourage any male Cloud descendants of those lines to participate in the DNA Project. We need them.
thanks,
Tom Cloud
Does anyone know from which family comes Robert Lee Cloud (b. June 26, 1931) who married Mattie Belle Teal (1939-1995)? Mattie was the daughter of Jesse Teal (1909-1971) and Pearl Drain (1912-1996), all of Tarrant county, Texas.
They lived in Tarrant county, Texas, and Robert may still be living there, though I can't find listing for him.

Some of you remember Ruth Harris -- she was very active in researhing the Cloud family and in helping others. She also did part of the previous version of the Cloud Family Association web site.
I last heard from her about 5 years ago when she dropped off the list and out of circulation due to her health. I called her this morning and we spoke for several minutes. She sounds great, but the disease won't relent and it is hurting her.
If any of you want to drop her a card or call her, write me off the list.

Viola Ruth Knight (1931-2004) married Lloyd Cloud (1922-1996) Dec. 24, 1959 (probably TX).
Viola was b. TX and d. TX.
Lloyd's SSN was issued Arkansas. He also d. TX
I am wondering if he isn't the son of Lawrence Cloud and Grace Baskin.
thanks,
Tom Cloud
Who is:
Mack Cloud b. ca 1901 GA
- in 1920 census he is in military, a private stationed in Philippines
I believe he had a son:
