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
In the "TO" area, it says INJACKSON-L, so having it in the subject area doesn't matter to me. As long as your e-mail
settings show you who the message is from, there shouldn't be a problem.

I belong to two Indiana lists, Jackson Co. and Clark Co., that do not have
the county listed in the subject area. As others have said, this has come up
before and nothing has been done to fix it. The easy thing to do then would be
for us to put INJACKSO in our subject area, would it not?

I agree with Dan. Since the list administrator can't or won't change the
header, I suggest everyone begin their subject lines with the surnames they are
working on it would help identify list members.
While I'm here if you have any info these family lines let me know.
Thanks Bill Heitman, Sr.

Yep, we don't stand in line to volunteer our time to work on this. You are
right, on that point. WHY???? Because dear one..there is no line to stand in!!
Furthermore, I have been told months ago that it is strictly up to the list
administrator, and ONLY the administrator has the power on how the list is
set-up, and to make changes. Funny how I don't recognize your email
address.....are you new to the list??? A name at the end of the email would have been
nice!!

I am new to this list so I am going to wait for the lsit administrator to
respond to our requests before making any more posts on the subject of
headers. I think asking for them is a reasonable request.

I think this is what the list administrator needs to do. This comes from
the help file at rootsweb:
Customize Settings:
Add a Prepend to Subject Lines
A prepend is like a prefix that appears at the beginning of every subject
line. Some researchers find prepends helpful when filtering mail or to
quickly scan the subject lines, as it easily identifies which messages came
from the list.
The downside is that those receiving digest mode will have a sizeable amount
of their subject line devoted to the prepend.
You decide what the prepend will be. Most administrators choose to use the
list name, or an abbreviated version of it. You will want to be careful that
you don't use the same prepend another list may be using. Listen to your
subscribers; they will generally let you know if your prepend duplicates
another list with the same topic.
Examples of a Prepend:
a.. Subject line without prepend:
Looking for John Smith, 1891-1940
b.. Subject line with a prepend of xxxxxxxx:
[xxxxxxxx] Looking for John Smith, 1891-1940
c.. Digest index with the same prepend:
[xxxxxxxx] Looking for John
The mailing list program will add the boxed brackets, do not enter them as
part of the prepend.
If you do not want to use this option, leave this section blank.

About every few months or so this subject comes up, and a bunch of us
always beg and plead passionately for the INJACKSO-L listmaster to fix
this. All ths other Rootsweb lists I subscribe to provide this feature,

Please, Please, whoever is in charge of this site. Make the subject line
show that this is from Jackson County. I get soooo many span emails that
anything without identification in the subject gets deleted. I really want
to see the queries. Please help, thanks Linda
Hi All;
If all messages would have the surnames and any other pushing the delete button all the time and not reading the message. I also delete any blank subject lines and or not having a surname etc in it.
No time to check each unknown, or unidentified E Mail message.
I have the above names plus more in JACKSON CO .In.

I am looking for the parents of Jesse CALLAHAN of Jackson County. He was born about 1795 in Kentucky or Pennsylvania. I believe his parents might be Thomas CALLAHAN and Elizabeth MARTIN of Lawrence County? I have not been able to find any documents proving this relationship.
Thank you,
Annette Kapple

My 3rd great grandparents, Joab W. Scott 1829 born in IN and Isabel Gray
12-1-1826 born in IN (N/A) Native American, (I believe maybe Kentucky.), has been
great grandmothers, grandmothers, mothers and my brick wall for years.
All the information we know is as follows.
Joab is found in the 8-20-1850 Washington County, IN Census. Living with;
Catherine (McKinley) Gray 66 (wife of Samuel Gray) Parents of Isabel 1821
Joab W. Scott 21
Adrew J. Brim 76
Catherine Brim 12
Sam Dudley 21
J Penetty 18
He married Isabell Gray in August 18, 1850 Washington County, IN Joab W.
Scott
but, in the corner Jacob M. Scott appears. They were married at the residence
of Samuel Goss. Which is two doors from where Joab was located in 1850.
Mary Goss wife of Joseph Goss left as sole Heir to her estate Joab W. Scott
6-10-1854.
Mary Polly Plaiss/Kern/Goss
Appears in the 1860, 1870 Jackson County Census.
1880, 1900, Isabel is widowed with the family.
1910 she is enumerated with her daughter in Seymour. (Milton and Emma Weddle)
Isabel's application for Joab M. Scott (depositions given twice, years
apart.) states her age and showing her to be born in 1821 instead if 1826.
How many times have you heard Who were Their parents, siblings, and Where are
they buried?
Could anyone possibly see if they can find a Jacob M. Scott in the Town of
Mooney, Owen Township, Jackson County, Indiana? I believe Mooney is now known as
Clear Springs. But I am not for sure.
Thankyou for your time,
Brenda Fowler
The 1870 Census shows no Cyrus Wilson in Jackson County.
There is a Cyrus L. D. Griffith, age 14, in Seymour Township, with Griffith
Griffith, age 82, Ruey R. C. Griffith, age 47. This is probably the Cyrus
Wilson with wife Elizabeth.
There is a Cyrus Wilson, age 16, in Graham Township, Jefferson County,
Indiana. Listed with father P. B. Wilson, age 53, and siblings: Angie age
21, Sarah age 20, Walter age 18, Mattie age 13, and Julia age 10.
I assume this is the Cyrus Wilson, age 6, listed in 1860 Census for Graham
Township, Jefferson County with father Preston B. Wilson, age 44 and mother
Julia A., age 39, and siblings: Harriet age 18, Mary M. age 16, Angolitta
age 13, Sarah age 11, Walter age 8, Martha age 3, and Julia age 3/12.
However, there is also a Cyrus Wilson age 6 listed in 1860 Census for
Jennings County, but do not find him in 1870 Census.
Cheers, Michael

I am seeking information on Cyrus Wilson who appears in the 1920 census of Jackson County, Brownstown, IN. He is 64 yrs and a Medical Doctor. His wife is Alice 50 yrs.
Cyrus L Wilson married Alice K Johnson May 25, 1887 in Jennings Co, IN. Would this be the same as the Cyrus in the 1920 census?
Does anyone remember this family?
Does anyone know who Cyrus's parents or siblings are?
Does anyone know who Cyrus's children are?
Thanks, Marilyn
Hi.
Ellen asked me to look at her email, while she is still in Nashville with
her dad. You can reach her at 615-769-7411 for now. She won't be back home
