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
The occupation listed as "do" is merely an abreviation of the word "ditto."
If you recorded the original occupation e.g. farmer, the "do" merely dittoes
the same occupation.

Thank you all for the help, now that I have the answer it seems so simple.
But I just couldn't put it together, so Thanks to all of you who answered me.
It's wonderful to know you're all out there.
Good hunting and God Bless;

It means ditto.....several people in a row had the same occupation, such as
farmer, and they "dittoed" the following people. You'll also see "do"
under place of birth.

The following article below is of interest to many "newbie's" and "oldies" of
the Internet,
at this site. It is forwarded for those who have recently subscribed to this
great site in
Kentucky. The information may help many learn about their ancestor(s). People
must understand that commercial CD's for sale by another company of FTM files
are not always true fact, as submitted by certain family members. About 75%
of those CD's contain errors of descents and ancestors. The same holds true
for Computer entries at the LDS. Therefore,
spend your money wisely.

1870 CENSUS CDs. Heritage Quest publishes the acclaimed Family Quest
Archives, and if you are searching for your American ancestors in the
restless period of great migration after the Civil War, the 1870 census is
usually critical to your success in finding them. Using the Family Quest
Archives 1870 Indexes, you can specify surname, given name, age, sex, race,
birthplace, county, and locality. This allows you to narrow your search
possibilities and provides faster search results. This new software is
flexible. It gives you the option to include specific age ranges or perform a
wildcard search to include all spelling variations of a name. Once you
complete a search you can sort the data in ascending or descending order,
copy a record to the Windows Clipboard, print the findings or make a text
file of the
results of your search. Currently the following nine 1870 census indexes are
available from Heritage Quest, P.O. Box 329, Bountiful, UT 84011-0329;
1-800-760-2455;

Also this week, I was contacted by Fred Finkbiner, the INGenWeb Archives

has volunteered to transcribe the 1850 Boone County, Indiana census for
the INGenWeb Archives. Terrific news! :-) If you are the volunteer and
are on the list, please let us know who you are...
Thanks to ALL who contributed! :-)
