Forwarded with permission....THIS BILL IS SO VERY IMPORTANT FOR ALL OF US!!

documents, that I felt that I must send this out to the lists. Please if you
have members living in MONTANA ASK THEM TO READ THE BILL AND SEND THIER
COMMENTS TO THEIR RESPECTIVE, STATE CONGRESSMAN OR REPRESENTIVE, THank you
Nelda
YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU WILL FIND OUT SOME OF YOUR RELATIVES WENT TO MONTANA

Subject: URGENT--SB 443 has a TIE VOTE OF 9 TO 9 !!
Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2001 07:32:18 -0700
TO THE SUPPORTERS OF SB 443 !
The House of Representatives have just told us
that they have not heard much from Montana
people in their own DISTRICTS. AND mostly
from Livingston here...as the only MONTANA
people....
HOWEVER, they have heard from all over the
STATES (LOTS FROM ALASKA) and around
the WORLD (AUSTRALIA, FRANCE, ENGLAND,
CANADA...).
Especially the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
on this STATE ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE,
feel that "playing POLITICS" and squaring off
Democrats against Republicans is the way to go
with SB 443, (they had a bad long drawn out
fight the day before on a different BILL)!
And this Committee thinks nit-picking on every
little point is being responsible.........SIMPLE
SOLUTIONS are not something they understand!!
Yes, there has been 4 Amendments to SB 443!!!
HOWEVER, SB 443 is still:
"AN ACT REQUIRING THAT LOCAL PUBLIC
RECORDS BE OFFERED TO CERTAIN ENTITIES
AND TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC BEFORE BEING
DESTROYED!
The Amendments basically state how the NOTICE
will be given.........SINCE THE COURTHOUSE
CLERKS CAN'T BE BOTHERED WITH HAVING TO
GIVE TOO MUCH NOTICE TO PUBLIC (PRIVATE
CITIZENS), after all!!
SB 443 is still under DEADLINE.....we may have until
Monday (I am still checking on this....since everyone
tells me a different date!!).
I am leaving for Helena in a few minutes......if I have
to talk with all of these other 9 NO VOTERS......AND
ALL OF THE REMAINING 100 HOUSE OF
REPRESENTATIVES BY MYSELF I WILL !
I JUST DON'T FEEL THAT IF THIS BILL DIES....
THAT MONTANA'S OLD RECORDS DESERVE
TO HAVE THE SAME FATE !! Especially since
the Legislature will not meet again for 2 YEARS !
Marien Stolzenburg & I give permission to fax
or scan our LETTERS TO THE EDITORS
from Wed. 3/21/01 Billings Gazette Paper
to any other paper in Montana........or anyone else
could write their own to any paper in MT.
Sen. Butcher the sponsor of SB 443 says,
"Use polite persuasion to the NO VOTERS"
on this State Administration Committee.....
The NO Voters are:
Debby Barrett--Dillon
Dee Brown--Hungry Horse
Larry Lehmen--Power
Ralph Lenhart--Glendive
Gay Ann Masolo--Townsend
Doug Mood--Seeley Lake
Alan Olson--Roundup
Rick Ripley--Wolf Creek
Clarice Schrumpf--Billings
All of these members have heard from the
Park County Genealogy Soc. in fact we
have written to a lot of the 100 Rep.......so
they think that since we are so small
we can be ignored!!!
The out-of-staters have been begging me
to let them help, as have the out of Country
Genealogists.........but the Legislators will
only listen to Montana people! I have known
this from the start.
What is sad is that these out-of-staters
and out of country Genealogists, really think
of themselves as MONTANA people, because
some still have family here while others
use to live here and still others have very
deep MT HISTORY in their FAMILY ROOTS.
THEY JUST WANT TO PROTECT THE
MONTANA OLD RECORDS...
SB 443 WOULD BE THE FIRST LAW TO ESTABLISH
A RECOGNITION OF PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT TO
PRESERVE ALL OF OUR MONTANA HERITAGE,
UNIVERSALLY THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE STATE
OF MONTANA!!
I have just been told, that in some Montana Counties
where they have micro-filmed some......they threw
out the OLD RECORDS BOOKS, BUT, the film
was the cheapest the County would buy, so the films
are so faded that they can't be read! And since
it was the Clerks that were doing the filming, they
got tired of taking the books apart to be filmed.....so
what was filmed was only parts of a page, the bindings
had been too big to lay anywhere close to flat! Some
of the Counties this happened in were in Rep. Olson's
DISTRICT (see above list of No Voters)....whereby
these same CLERKs have been calling him to Vote
NO!!!
e-mail the House of Representatives
TODAY !!
http://leg.state.mt.us/leg_msg.htm
SB 443 IS DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF
DR. & PROFESSOR TOOLE OF THE UNIV. OF
MONTANA--MISSOULA.
He was The Historian of Montana History & champion
to the Preservation of Montana's past through not only
artifacts, but also it's WRITTEN HISTORY !
Please Support SB 443.
Patricia Marchington,
with MT Roots going back to 1878.

There must be some connection, although probably not this one. My Bridget(34)
is listed in the 1850 Davies county census with Michael(39) and their six
children, John, Patrick, Mary, Peter, Margaret, and Michael. This is the
only Molloy connection in Davies county though. Peter then went on to Owen
County Indiana. Do you have any other info on these people? Peter had children
including Emmett, William, John, and others.
Thanks. Susan Molloy O.
