Listmembers:
I really regret having to address this particular email to the whole group,
however, somewhere in here perhaps everyone can obtain some helpful information
from what I will say. I am also doing this in hopes of contacting as many
different researchers that I may have personally corroborated with on our joint
lineages.
It is my advise to everyone to not exchange or send any of your genealogical
data/word files/gedcoms to:
doconnor(a)unf.edu or debbie_keith(a)yahoo.com
I haven't found the specific source as of yet, but somehow she has gotten a
hold of some files in my database that are not normally sent out; only to a
very few persons that I regularly exchange with.
She is however, taking this information and literally PLASTERING on the
internet on various sites.
1. Some is suppositions that she is purporting to be fact.
2. Nothing is given a source other then herself.
3. Much of the data is of a personal nature that she could not have obtained
anywhere else, but it is also items that any sensible researcher would have
common sense to know has ABSOLUTELY NO business being on the internet for
public view.
4. Some is private medical information.
I advise again ANYONE corresponding with her to not divulge any data you don't
want made public.
I know neither I nor my father sent it to her.
I also know I haven't corresponded with her in at least 3 years and yet the
info she posts has occurred since then. Things I wouldn't have known at that
time to tell her.
I hope that everyone on the list thinks seriously before sending files or at
least whole files to persons they are not well acquainted with.
I myself correspond and exchange with perhaps 6 persons..
I cannot imagine who would have passed any data on but anyone who has been in
close contact with me regarding the CARTER lineage and has also had contact
with Debbie (Voils/Keith/O'Connor) please contact me.
